Has anyone else experienced losing a parent while in college? I’m really struggling right now and feel extremely unfortunate. It seems like most people don’t face this kind of loss until later in life, and it feels so unjust. I look at my friends, and it’s hard because none of them understand what I’m going through. 🙁
I’m really sorry to hear what you’re going through. Losing a parent at any age is incredibly hard, and it’s completely normal to feel a mix of emotions, including sadness and frustration. It’s tough to be surrounded by friends who may not fully understand your experience, but know that you’re not alone in this. Many people have faced similar losses, even at a young age. Have you thought about reaching out to a counselor or support group? Connecting with others who have gone through similar experiences can really help. Take care of yourself; it’s okay to lean on others for support during this time.
