You see it coming and you can\u2019t stop it. It finally reaches you and that day is a torrential downpour which leaves you feeling a tad worse for wear.<\/p>\n<p>Then the following days are a time where you have to dry off and get your life back on track. For anyone that needs to hear it, this is a reminder of how far you have come independently and the strength that it takes to do just that.<\/p>\n<p>As we wave goodbye to another mother\u2019s day, those without a motherly figure in their lives may be left with feelings of sadness and loneliness that aren\u2019t so easy to run from.<\/p>\n<p>The stark reminder of it being mother\u2019s day is unavoidable as it drowns us in every corner of our lives. The shops are overflowing with buckets of flowers. TV\u2019s are flashing adverts urging us to send cards with personalised messages. And then there is social media &#8211; a place where seemingly everyone is singing praises for their mum with family pictures and heartfelt words, with \u2018BEST MUM\u2019 \u2018COULDN\u2019T LIVE<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_31731\" style=\"width: 406px\" class=\"wp-caption alignright\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-31731\" class=\" wp-image-31731\" src=\"https:\/\/awesome-shockley.77-68-72-77.plesk.page\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Samantha-Mothers-day-feature-300x296.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"396\" height=\"391\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-31731\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Samantha Grace and her award from Stand Alone charity.<\/p><\/div>\n<p>WITHOUT YOU MUM\u2019 \u2018I LOVE YOU MUM\u2019 which is unrelatable for many. Companies have even given the choice to opt out of their marketing for those that wish to stay out of the celebration bubble.<\/p>\n<p>The reality of this? Mother\u2019s Day will show up every year as much as we try to avoid it. The day becomes a mere 24 hours of surviving, but these feelings don\u2019t have a button that enables us to switch off as soon as it\u2019s over. The sadness continues long after Mothering Sunday, when we\u2019ve had the day to compare our lives to others on social media. When we have to recharge our energy levels once more and reset our thoughts to continue with our everyday lives.<\/p>\n<p>Samantha Grace understands the anxiety that arises with mother\u2019s day, and every day for that matter. She left her family home at the age of 16 to move in with her grandparents until she left for university.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI used university as an escape, and I put my everything into getting the 5A\u2019s I needed to go to Glasgow university, which I did. I\u2019m now 21 and in my final year about to graduate. I would never have imagined coming this far.\u201d Now five years later she is an ally for estranged students and has won an award from Stand Alone charity for raising awareness and voicing the struggles that estranged adults face.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-31837 alignleft\" src=\"https:\/\/awesome-shockley.77-68-72-77.plesk.page\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Picture1-300x202.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"308\" height=\"207\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sheffieldwire.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Picture1-300x202.png 300w, https:\/\/sheffieldwire.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Picture1.png 413w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 308px) 100vw, 308px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Sam says: \u201cNow I celebrate Mother\u2019s Day by dedicating it to my grandparents and by thinking about all of the influential women around me and the role that they play in my life. Then I\u2019ll order myself a takeaway.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI also try and focus on the role that I played in raising myself too. I\u2019ve had to put myself first in every situation and be my own mum through everything. I\u2019ve had to be my own support network, my own safety net without relying on anyone else.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Everyone\u2019s grief is unique by their own experiences, but the important thing is to recognise your grief and how it\u2019s affecting you. We\u2019re also battling a pandemic so if all you do is survive the wave then that is also fine.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cNot only is it hard on Mother\u2019s Day but it is hard every day. It\u2019s difficult seeing everyone on social media posting their mums as it makes me feel different to everyone else. Or when I see my friends doing things on the day I don\u2019t really have that. I try not to compare my life to others, but it\u2019s hard when people&#8217;s parents can help them out in life. It really annoys me when people assume that I have that too.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI just wish people could understand that it isn\u2019t my fault or any sort of personal fault in you that you are estranged from your parents. It\u2019s definitely normal to feel the weight of it all.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-31836 alignright\" src=\"https:\/\/awesome-shockley.77-68-72-77.plesk.page\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Picture2-300x220.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"220\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sheffieldwire.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Picture2-300x220.png 300w, https:\/\/sheffieldwire.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/Picture2.png 384w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Sam emphasises how important it is for people to openly talk about their feelings with estrangement because of it being such a taboo topic. It\u2019s good to raise awareness and make people feel included, especially when there is so much stigma around everyone having a traditional family support line on days like Mother\u2019s Day.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIf you\u2019re struggling, ask for help and reach out to talk. It\u2019s a scary thing to do but it\u2019s always best to ask and I think the worst that someone will say is no. For me it was the only\u00a0way I was able to get proper support so it\u2019s definitely worth it. But also keep trying if the first person isn\u2019t helpful, there will be so\u00a0many others in similar situations.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Sam takes comfort in looking after yourself by staying off social media until the stories die down. Take time for yourself in whatever way you feel best and for however long you need to recharge. Chat with a friend or go for a walk, just do something.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI think on a day like mother\u2019s day it\u2019s okay to be passive if that helps you get through, but maybe coming off social media for a while will help you or simply doing something nice for yourself. For the most part I try and surround myself with people who understand, and I won\u2019t tolerate anything less.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>If you are having a hard time seek help and visit the Stand-Alone website <a href=\"https:\/\/www.standalone.org.uk\/\">here.<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>For some of us mother\u2019s day is like watching a dark cloud moving towards you.
