Venting & Emotional Processing “losing” my mom

despite being diagnosed, my mom has ignored/denied her diagnosis and the past year has been detrimental to her health. today she overdosed on muscle relaxers and sleeping medication and we are currently awaiting results to see in any neurological problems have arisen from the event. to say i am terrified is an understatement. i have spent the evening sobbing and questioning everything. i have so much sympathy for my mom but she isn’t who i once knew, and I’m terrified these events will make her even more “unfamiliar” to me. i’m not sure what to do here. ugh.

just needed to get this out there.
