firstly, i am so sorry about your mom. <3 secondly, i think you being upset is valid because it’s difficult to see new people come into your dads life after your mom. i think it’s important to talk to him about how you feel, communicating is key. also don’t feel like you’ll end up alone, you have no idea what the future holds for you, you could always meet new friends, i use to be the biggest loner & thought the same, but i took a leap of faith & sat with someone in school & know i have a friend group. so don’t lose hope. just because it feels like this now, doesn’t mean it’ll feel like this forever. :) <3

Its because all this is odd... Odd and strange... All this situation. I am not angry because somewhat he is moving forward on the loss, but also because I am worried about our family. I dont to see my sister and he discussing, almost fighting. And she wants to leave. I even thought about looking for some hotel or room for her to rest, like Airbnb, so she could go with our dog and forget about this a little and I would hold on here alone. I dont to see more fight

@Heello it’s not wrong to feel strange because it’s a very new thing & if there is fighting then finding a place to take a step back is a good idea. it’s healthy to create boundaries for your guys’ mental health. you seem like a very understanding, caring sibling to want to do that for your sister too, but remember to also prioritize your own boundaries. i wish the best for you!

Oh I'm so sorry to hear that :( I know it must be incredibly hard. But in the other hand you could also review how you feel towards your dad. It must have been equally as hard for him as for you guys. And sometimes finding someone new is the best step in recovering. Maybe you could try to feel happy for him, which isn't easy. But maybe it's best for him to move on, having someone new doesn't mean he never loved your mother. It's just means he is trying to cope. Probably speaking to him would help a lot!

Yes I understand. Of all persons I know I cant judge him or be angry. I just want ouro family, me, my sister and him to be able to live in harmony at least. I feeling a little better right know, cause I was also feeling guilty. I will try to talk with my psychiatrist as soon as possible too

I'm sorry to hear about your mom. My mom passed last October and it's been tough. I know how it feels to not have friends or feel like you have no one to talk to. I don't know if you believe in God or not or have a relationship with him but I know that God is a present help in times of trouble. He is the one who can bear our burdens when we can't. He is someone who you can always call on without him judging you. God loves you and he will never leave you or forsake you. He has been my strength since my mom passed. I have my moments when I grieve but if you believe in him he will see you through

I’m feeling kind of sad cause today was not a really good day in terms of my ocd. I was feeling kind of foggy/numb and that send me to spiraling. I’m 21 years old currently studying but my family has been having trouble with money for the last couple years(we’re just me and my mom) and I kinda want to get a job but everything is far from my home and I wouldn’t be able to return back at night, also it’s either way more expensive to move or the schedule wouldn’t let me take my classes. The point is that because of that every time my mom is stress tends to treat me bad, she speaks to me like I’m stupid or she just screams to nothing cursing all life and everything and that actually makes me feel soo bad and guilty for not doing anything, I know it’s hard for me to get a job that actually helps us without quitting school but that doesn’t stop me from feeling like I’m a burden. I want to help, I want to maybe hug her or something but I know she will be angrier and probably will reject it. So that’s it, I just feel like she punishes me for the stress she’s carrying and I get it but one day is happy and it feels like all love and the next is treating me like that, Idk it’s hard (also I feel like I shouldn’t be saying this cause it’s all my fault) 🫤

Last year I used and app to talk about my POCD and people called me a pedo and told me to kill myself. It has been months and I had even forgotten about it, but I talked about my mom yesterday and I feel a sense of doom now. Like, I could have lived my life normally, but this happened. I feel overhelmed, and don't know exactly what to do, cuz when I stop to think about it, it is something awful, but I spend months just not caring, I don't know what to do, it was not even close to the worst thing that has ever happened to me, but it still feels terrible, it keeps echoing in my mind, and It won't go away, and yes I know it is OCD, I just want to let It go. And I lied somethings to my mom cuz if I told the whole truth she would be even more heartbroken (I just didn't say what app it was and I said it was recently, and not months ago) And I feel bad, but now I can't go back, but if I told her the whole truth, she would've just broke down. Basically she thinks it was yesterday and in another app, and I told her I just commented on something. But I feel so bad! I don't want to tell the truth to her, but also, I don't know...

TW I am so utterly broken. I feel like my heart is shattered to pieces, within the span of a month I have lost someone that was like a second mother to me and someone who just passed away that was my closest connection to my great grandmother. I am having very taboo thoughts (as well as physical responses) surrounding death because of OCD, while also carrying such a massive weight of grief. Idk if taboo thoughts with death are even normal, while it is overwhelming me, I’m also so numb to grief at this point. Can anyone please give some kind of advice on how I may improve my mental health without overwhelming my family during their time of grief? I’m so tired of being strong, but right now I absolutely have to be. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
