Am I still suppose to be aching?

My Momma died in Feb 2010. Some days are really bad. The memories are acute at times and just stop me in my tracks. 2010 brought my husband having a bizarre RA disorder of the hands, then a serious accident. Then Mom passing. Then my youngest and I out of sorts for six weeks. Then I got in a not my fault accident and I still in 2011 I am unable to resume driving. Had kidney stones removed, tail bone injured and really painful from accident, left leg has no no strength and some old injuries are back. I came out of almost six months of depression. Started a class, teaching, was asked, about depression and what to learn from depression. Lol, hd one student. Have taught for three years! So, I come in here. I really don't have family or friends to let loose on about all this. Yes my psych.
The good news is my psych has me on good meds and husband listens. But now Dad is coming to the end, in and out of hospital, sister and brother being really selfish about visiting him. So hubby and I two weeks this month are going down to visit him, we are five hours away from him. It is just bizarre, I am the one taking meds, my brother is past a genious and working for a high power company and my sister is smart and just went back to surgical pediatric operations nurse. It hurts, it really hurts.

I'm so sorry to hear about all you have been through.  My psych doctor told me to distract myself from all my troubles, so I found hobbies.  Hope life gets better for you.

Sounds like you have a lot on your plate to deal with and your steep grief is probably completely normal with all the stuff you're having to deal with.  I wish there was some magic fix to a plethora of problems in life because I could sure use it myself but I don't know of any.  I'll let you know if and when I ever find one.
