Re: my first birthday without my mum 💔
thankyou @TheNightmare thats kind of you to say.
its not even the fact i have no gifts cards bc i dont care abt that but its abt the fact i have noone in my life who cares abt me i am alone every day and ppl take my kindness for granted and its hurtful bc mum was the only person who always cared me and never used me so its shit bc i spent all my other birthdays with her and im in a homeless flat alone from everyone and have noone. its so shit 💔
We care about you ❤️
Re: my first birthday without my mum 💔
like the comments above have all said - after all you have been through, we are all so incredibly proud of you. i can't imagine how challenging this time must be for you without your mum to celebrate with, but i think she'd be so proud of you right now for the amazing person you are. i want to remind you that you are so cared for by all of us here, even if we aren't there in person with you (i know it doesn't feel the same). i know there isn't a great deal myself and us can do to help ease the hurt and pain you feel, but you are so loved and we are always here for you 
Re: my first birthday without my mum 💔
I’m so sorry @eylah you’ve truly been through so much. I know it’s not the same at all but know that we care about you 🫂 I wish there was more I could say to make it better
Re: my first birthday without my mum 💔
@eylah I’m so sorry for how bad you are hurting right now I just want to tell you how proud I am for writing all of this because I imagine it must be hard for you to write. I do know that pain won’t ever go away because it’s someone you love very much to the bottom of your heart and I can tell you she is watching over you and she and all of us at the mix are so proud of you for holding on all this hurt. I’m here for you if you need to speak we all care about you at the mix here to support and help you cope trust me you are so brave because I couldn’t imagine going through that 💛💛I wish you a very happy birthday for Thursday x
Re: my first birthday without my mum 💔
I'm so sorry you're feeling this way right now. Birthdays, especially the first ones without someone you love, can be incredibly hard. It’s okay to feel sad, and it doesn’t make you a failure. The pain of missing your mum is deep, and it’s okay to grieve that. Even though things haven’t gone as planned, you're still doing your best, and that’s something to be proud of. You don’t have to go through this alone, even if it feels like it. Your mum would be so proud of your strength, even on the tough days. Take things one step at a time, and remember that it's okay to reach out for support when you need it. You’re not a mess, just someone who is hurting, and that’s completely understandable.
