This weekend will mark the five year anniversary of my mothers death. I took her death very hard. Well this week I started having flashbacks of the day at the hospital and the last time that I saw her when she was dead. It is very hard can't get these thoughts out of my head since I blame myself for that day. Does anyone have any ideas of how to get the thoughts to go away?

Flashbacks will happen, my mom has only been gone a year and a half and sometimes I get them too. They're hard, and it's almost like they take you back to THAT day and you feel like you are grieving all over again. Some days are harder than others.

Try going for a walk, clearing your head. Find something to help the time pass, do something in honor of your mom's life, go out with a friend, to lunch, to the movies, find a new place to have an adventure, get immersed in a new book, etc. Hope my suggestions help.... I find if I keep myself busy, I don't have time to think about sad things. It's just how I am able to get through my day easier.

When my friend died it took yrs to replace the bad with good it may take even longer with family.
