How would you react if you lost your parents?

There are times when I think of loosing my parents. I really cannot conceive something like that since I have never lost anybody in my life. Not a close relative, not a friend not anyone that I really felt closed to. Therefore I have no idea how would I react! I am so scared and I rather not think about it. If I lost my mother I would feel more devistated than loosing my father. Not that I don't love him as much, but my mother, anybody's mother is unique!

everybody has a different reaction as we have different experiences with them! how you feel actually describes what experience you had. savor the positive memories and be blessed that you had them. if there were any negatives, usually its because we have shades on! to see better, remove the sunglasses!

Its really sad that there is no body to care for you. Yes it is really hurting to be without parents but these things come from nature and one has no control over these. All one can do is pray that god gives a long life to ones parents.

yes. that is truely sad. i feel really sorry for you and i'm sure every one on mylot would feel sorry for you too. if i lost my parents i would react in the very same way. :'(

Hi itdusntmatta :) What you are feeling is really hard to bear. You have to go trough the process of grieving, cry if you must, do it a lot and often. This way you are doing two things, one is helping yourself by releasing the emotions and two, you are giving tribute to your parents because you are crying for them, its like you are expressing your love to them. But after grief, you have to move on. There is no other choice but to go on with your life. Sure, remember them, keep their memories alive. But these memories should not hold you from what you are supposed to be doing and achieving. I have lost my dad and it took me 2 years to recover from the pain of loosing him. My best therapy in getting over my lost is finding a great relationship, a wonderful friendship that turned to great marriage. Give yourself time, you will bounce back to happy times. I wish you the best :)

I can't give you an answer because I honestly don't know how I would respond. My boyfriend has lost both of his parents (he's 25 years old now) and it effects him every single day of his life. He's just not the same anymore. I'm really sorry that you're having to deal with that, even though I know that doesn't make the hurt stop.

upto me i have been grown in such a way to face any consequences in life. So i am a blunt man even to face the poverty also.Since childhood i wasw under poverty and presently bette to face the challenges of life.But a any cost lost is lost nobody can fill the space of our parents.We have satisfy and console ourself.

I have lost a parent my dad..It has been 7 and a half yrs ago..and I took it so hard because he was my life..but as time goes by it has got easier not that I don't miss him it's just not as hard as it was..I don't know what I would do if I lost my mom too? I don't think I could handle it right now..
