>mom is 50
>she is borderline anorexic (medical reasons, she's not obsessed with being fat), a workaholic, and in general her health is shit
>tfw there is no factor in her health that can let me believe that she will have a long life
Fuck. My mom has been the most loving figure of my life, to me she gave me nothing but affection, guidance and tenderness, and I've always gave her back these same things. I can't even start to think about her death without shedding a tear or two.
How the fuck does one cope with these feelings? I'm pretty sure I'm not "designed" to accept such a traumatic event.
why don't you fuckk her OP
Nothing is permanent, anon. You will lose your mom someday, but that's not what you should be focusing on. Just appreciate her while she's here and let her know how much you love her. When it's time to let go, you'll get through it just fine. Humans are designed to overcome loss because our lives are nothing but loss.
iktf, i luv my mom as well, and she's always been frail & sickly & thin, it's been worse since my dad left for another woman, then my older sister married & left, then my older brother became a tranny & got his own place, now i'm practically a NEET, yeah life kind of sucks right now

You're supposed to start a family of your own. Even just a gf and a dog. Or a group of friends to fall back on. If you have no social circle, you're gonna go through hell when you get older and family members start dying off one by one.
Shit's gay
I think that you just have to know that if there is something you can do to help, you do it.
There isn't a thing you can do further than that, and what happens just happens, it's not complicated.
I sometimes think about my gramps, he is in and out of hospital and I don't think he will make it to christmas. He has had a great life but now it is shit, and I feel like I let him down because I'm fucking weird.
Idk if you can just accept that what happens just happens. I can because I don't really feel about many things until something hits me. But it's the best I can come up with.
Hope your mom sticks around man

All living things come to an end anon even us, even this image board
