    @Chloe234 Aw I am so sorry for your loss. Getting to terms with such a loss may take time and I am pleased you have shared how you are feeling. These feelings may come and go, feel more manageable at times and less at other times. It is ok to feel these emotions and allow yourself to experience them. Please be kind to yourself.
    Have you thought about doing self-care activities? This can be doing anything you find relaxing, spending time with friends or focusing on hobbies.
    If you are finding day to day tasks hard to manage, then you could reach out to friends or wider family. If you would like alternative support, you could reach out to your gp, or contact the Samaritans by calling 116 123. TheMix also have a 24/7 chat service accessible via texting ‘THEMIX’ to 85258.
    We are here for you so please do not hesitate to reach out. You are very strong and brave.
    Sending hugs

    @Chloe234 I second the comment above. I can't imagine how difficult it may be for you at the moment. Remember to take care of yourself and allow yourself to feel the emotions you feel.

    Like @Stellaluna has said, please do reach out to us or other support networks if you need it, as they'll all be open ears and try to support you the best they can, including here on TheMix.

    Thinking of you and sending hugs
