Hey this is my first time listing to reddit. Long time lurker, but thought I'd finally join haha. The title says it all I guess. It's been nearly 6 years since I lost my mom. I was 18 at the time and had just lost a close childhood friend 2 months previously. The friend died of a car crash and my mom died of a heart attack. These 2 sudden deaths really messed me up and my self esteem and trust is very low. I already had mental health issues before the deaths, but these pushed them to the edge. Its caused me to be pretty reclusive and I've pretty much just been surviving the past 6 years to be honest. Since the deaths I've been in a black hole coating through university and barely living life. I feel like I've finally got my footing on the ground though. I have a lot to work on, but for the first time in the last 6 years or so I feel hopeful. Any advice on continuing to try and move forward would be appreciated.
