I found that I when I focused on the new, more spiritual, relationship I have with my mother after her passing over, then the physical sense of missing her was much less. I have reminders of her around me, now they are reminders to check in with her to unload my troubles or get guidance.

Thank you for your post, I do appreciate it. I do pray to my parents too, but I miss their physical presence. When I pray, I often receive the guidance I need. I’m normally steered in the right direction when I’m troubled for some reason. There are a couple of things going on, and I know that I need therapy for it. I’m fairly sure I have PTSD from my mother’s death, it was a very abrupt end to her life. My father on the other hand, we had some warning. He died of cancer. We had time to say our goodbyes, so for that I am grateful. I miss them on a physical level, to be able to give them a hug and a kiss. I can’t even write these things without welling up.
I’m sure I’ll be in a better place tomorrow, today is just a tough one. Thank you for your reply
