โHello from the other side of it. I've been there. For me it was two years ago. Mine was looking after my parents now. I can talk about it now without falling apart. It changes. It really does. Be gentle with yourself.โ
โDear stranger, i was in the same place in 2022. The worst part: nobody asks about the sibling. Today I went for a walk and didn't cry once. Things come back, slower than you'd like but they do. One day at a time.โ
โHello from the other side of it. I was right where you are a few years back. My little brother died at 27. That was every day. I wake up most days without that dread. It changes. It really does. You've got this, even if it doesn't feel like it.โ
โFor anyone new to this: I was right where you are about three years ago. I remember looking after my parents now like it was yesterday. Yesterday I booked a holiday. Bit by bit it comes back. Be gentle with yourself.โ
