So sorry to hear of your terrible loss.
I had no support at all and still waiting for a Counsellor. Not spoken about my Dad to anyone as husband and he didn't get on and he works 24/7 so seldom around. Just been totally alone and bottling it all up.
Waiting for Counselling now so hoping it will help.
Thanks so much for your reply.
Hey there,
Have I ever felt like you are? Yes.
Will you feel better in time? Yes
Do you need to talk out your feelings of grief with a counselor? Yes
It has been five months since your dad's death. I hope you saw a therapist ...most are experienced in grief counseling. I saw one twice, and it was most helpful.
My son was shot and killed by his father, my former husband, on March 6, 2010.
Death of a family member is a loss. Frankly, I don't know how I would have made it without the support of friends here. Believe MH has a grief forum. I posted in Cat Forum...as friends had just helped me with the death of my cat...three days before son passed.
You must talk this out.
Believe you know it....
Best ...keep posting...good people here who have gone through loss and after effects which are often heightened anxiety.
