I just don’t know what to do. I’ve been struggling pretty intensely with grief from losing my mother 10 years ago this fall. She had brain cancer and was sick for nearly half my life.
I just can’t seem to move on, and I feel stuck. All I want is to see her and talk to her. I’ve never even been to her grave because it makes me too upset. How do you get to acceptance? What does that even look like? It seeems like everyone I know has gotten there but me. |

Hello Nerdmama: I see this is your first post here on PC. So... welcome to Psych Central.
Here's a link to an article by our host Dr. John Grohol, Psy.D., from Psych Central's archives, on the subject of healing from grief & loss. The article provides links to a number of additional articles on the subject. Also included are links to 3 articles on the subject of complicated grief including a link to a quiz you can take on the subject: Coping with Grief | Psych Central What is Complicated Grief? | Mental Health Awareness Complicated Grief: How to Get Unstuck | Bonding Time Grief and Loss Quiz I hope you find PC to be of benefit. __________________ "I may be older but I am not wise / I'm still a child's grown-up disguise / and I never can tell you what you want to know / You will find out as you go."

My mom's 10 year anniversary is coming up. She had stomach cancer. I feel like there is no acceptance. Things still make me sad.
