Struggles that Stick What Builds and Breaks Us

    • Documentary

She may be gone but to him shes still right there. Death happens to everyone somewhere along the lines. We all deal with it in various different ways, sometimes it's harder once you're used to them being there for such a long time on a daily basis. Some struggles that we go through tend to stick with us longer than others.

Anthony’s mother had gotten into her car after she’d been drinking. She had never put her seat belt on and nobody stopped her nor did they tell her to put her seatbelt on. As she was leaving the party. She was going 50mph and hit a tree. Her body flew out of the passenger side of the window.

His mom's death led him to thoughts of suicide. He wanted to be with his mom. At the age of eight not knowing why she died or even if she wanted to made him feel neglected like he wasn't good enough to be her son. He also felt like he wasn't good enough without her because she was the only one that he really had. It made his life harder that he even tried to commit suicide multiple times.

Not having his mom to talk to made having nobody else to talk to even harder. His dad got remarried a short while after the accident, he never wanted to acknowledge that his 1st wife his son's mother is really gone. Anthony never really had anyone to talk to before his mother died and now there is nobody for him to talk to, besides me, he’s never really talked to anyone about this. Nobody beside his dad fully wants to accept that she's really gone. At the same time of all of this going on, he can't trust anybody. He has been bouncing back and forth between different schools meeting people, then leaving not having a bond with anyone to be able to tell things like this to.

Losing his mother has opened his eyes and made him realize anything can happen at any time. The struggles that we go through can be either long or short-termed. It just so happens this incident came with long term struggles.
