Navigating Mother’s Day: How to Cope with Losing Your Mom or Child
Mother’s Day can be an especially difficult holiday if you’re grieving your mom or child. Whether it’s your first Mother’s Day without your mom or child or years have passed, grief shows up differently for everyone. Some of you may find it soothing to bring flowers to your loved one’s grave or book that trip you always wanted to take with your mom. But some of you might wish this day didn’t exist. Remember, you are also allowed to “skip” this day, as this article suggests. You can treat it like just another day, if that’s what feels best to you this year.
