Some may know that I have recently become a widow
I have always tried to be a strong person but I have caved since my husband died and feel a complete burden on my loving caring son
He has taken on the task to help me and make me better
He put me in contact with a well recommended therapist and found my local bereavement group for me
He visits me loads and calls and messages me loads too
Wow putting all of this in writing really makes me realise just how much he has done and is still doing all while taking care of his wife that has just given birth to their third child
I feel so bad and such a burden on him
The therapist did help loads. What mainly resonated with me was when he said this too will pass, for some reason I did not apply that mantra to my bereavement But I started to and it helped immensely along with other things that I was doing, meditation etc
The reason I feel a particular burden recently is because I have made the decision to stop seeing the therapist I told my son and I think he is worried that as I have only been two times to see the therapist it is too early to give up doing that, I think that makes him stressed because he is not the type to put any kind of pressure on me or opinionated himself so I feel that I am such a burden to him and I don't want to be what can I do to be less of a burden to him
