I have felt so disconnected with myself lately I don't know what to do. I miss my dad so much and I just can't wrap my head around the fact that he isn't here. I know he's here in soul but I just miss everything and it's causing me to feel lost in reality.

I haven't been getting along with my mom either and she's pushing me to do all this stuff and I just feel so lost and have no one. We never really talked to my family so it's just all awkward for me talking. It was always just me and my dad and mom and it just all feels so different. My anxiety has been really bad lately my thoughts have just been so off. I don't think I have completely let in the fact of all of what happened and I'm just so scared.

I've never dealt with someone close passing, although close people have, not this close. I just feel like I don't understand any of it. sad

Hey FL Larry here i do understand, i was raised by my Grandparrents, i went to the Army 14 days out of
HS and the first year i was in i lost them both, being where i was i had no choice but to put the way i felt
on the back burner of life, some years later i went to the cemetery where they were buried, it took me a
little while to remember the pain of loosing them, i layed on the mound where they were and i cried like a
baby don't know how long i was there, it come to me that they were both very old and had many things
wrong with them, i guess i am silly but it come out like this, they held on and finished the job, because they
Loved me, now i will go forward and finish my job, and they will be proud of me! Peace

Hi

Sorry to hear of the loss of your father I understand how you must be feeling and how this has been affecting your anxiety.

Sorry to hear you are not getting along with your mum at the moment I hope that this can be resolved at some point. I would suggest that you go and speak with your doctor about how you are feeling with regards to your anxiety and see what they suggest lots can be done to help. I would also maybe look into speaking with a Bereavement Counsellor to help you talk through the loss of your father as I feel that will be helpful for you.

Keep posting here we are here to support you through this tough period.

So sorry to hear about your Dad. It sounds like this is all so fresh so it must be quite recent. It is completely understandable to be feeling the way you do. I have never lost anyone close to me but I worry about the day its going to happen all the time, must be awful :(

Try and look after yourself right now because that's what your Dad would have wanted :) Hope you feel better soon x

Hi FL.,

I am so sorry that you are feeling so lonely for your dad, and at odds with your mom.:( This sounds like a very difficult place to be at the moment.

Was this your first Christmas without him? This is of course an incredibly difficult thing!

Try your best to get along with your mom. She is surely hurting as well...and also trying to ensure that you are moving forward which is healthy, essential...and what your dad would want most for you!

I still miss my dad. (we lost him when I was 15) It put me in a tailspin for some time...but now I look at my own kids, career, life, and think...wow...he would be proud! :)

Know that we care about you here, and are always available to listen, understand and encourage you.

Hugs,

S.C.
