Hi Scott,

Sending you big hugs. My Dad passed away eleven months ago. I have a lot of confusing feelings towards my Dad and it is an emotional time losing you father.

Did you have a good relationship with him?

Hi Scott. I'm sorry to hear that you are so sad and that you aren't coping well. I've been sad a lot lately too, about a whole bunch of things.

I think you're really brave to let yourself feel the sadness, it's often pretty scary thing to feel (at least for me). My t says it makes things harder if you weren't ever able to feel sad when you were younger or if you didn't have a good model for how to deal with it. I hope you keep posting here if you find it helpful.

I'm sorry this is so difficult for you; it's so incredibly hard to lose your father. But I have to agree with what Summer said, two months is not a long time after you've lost someone this important. Two months after my (very well loved) mother in law died I was still crying every day. So let yourself be sad but know that you'll get through it and it won't always hurt this badly.

I'm glad you came here to talk about how you feel.

Sorry to hear about your loss, Scott. I lost my Dad some years ago. Be good to yourself and allow yourself time to grieve. It will get better in time. We are thinking of you.

Of course you are sad, losing your Dad is a pretty big deal. Why is your T getting worried? Are you able to cry about it? Can you journal? Is there another way you can think of to let the sadness out? Just keep letting it out, don't hold it in. Eventually the grief will give way to acceptance and healing. Please let us know how you are doing.

Hi Scott,

There are no words to comfort you so all I can say is that I hope you have lots of support around you and we're always here if you need to talk or just wanna read some threads that you feel might help.

It's definitely gonna take time as the cliche goes but I have found it's true from loved ones I've lost. It'll never be the same but it becomes a bit easier.


Hugs and love,
Mrs. P
