My dad passed away yesterday and I honestly don’t know what to do. I feel lost and numb and I keep having outburst of crying. I know he’s in a better place and he’s no longer in pain but I miss him and he’s all I think about all day.
I am so sorry for your loss.
How do you deal?
Your way. Whatever way works for you.
Cry. Scream. Be sad. Laugh. Eat mac and cheese. Walk. Run. Sit. Netflix. Whatever works.
Gotta take care of you, though. Eat. Drink water. Take a shower or bath. Do the basic human things.
This is your process and your timeline. Don't let anyone tell you otherwise.
Also, try to find the little things in life that give you pleasure. A fresh cup of coffee. A walk at sunrise. Laughing with a friend. A new pack of markers. Whatever. Then be intentional about including those in your life.
And then, one step, one hour, one day at a time.
Again, so sorry for your loss.
I'm sorry you lost your pop. But he's not gone, just somewhere else.
It's going to be a very confusing time for a while, and you'll think about him 24/7. But I can tell you it does get better.
You'll come to accept it and get used to life without him. Every thought you have about him now makes you sad, but eventually they'll make you happy.
Check out Matt Fraser on YouTube. He helped me tremendously after the loss of my girlfriend. Grief never ends, but it becomes bearable. He's always with you.
The best advice anyone can give is this.
Do what is best for you. Cry your heart out. Scream at the top of your lungs until you can't scream no more.
The hardest part is don't morn his loss, celebrate his life. Remember all good things, and memories and know you were blessed to have shared his life with him.
He is always with you, in memory and watching you from his afterlife where there is no more suffering or sadness.
He has been given his reward. I pray for him, you and your family
You'll sit and stare for a while and work on auto-pilot. You'll have a contant ache in your chest and find yourself breaking down in various places. You'll also find yourself walking down memory lane a lot. The pain will lessen when you come to accept it. Your head may understand but your heart does not and it will be crippling for a while

That sucks! I was only 4 years older than you when my father passed away so I feel your pain hun. The pain never goes away. But it will get more manageable over time. Don't worry about dealing with it right now. You really can't, just let the truck full of pain run you down and then try to find your legs. Know that your dad STILL loves you. Death cannot extinguish that. And then remember all the good times. None of us know how long we have what matters is what we do with the time that is given to us. You are one of your fathers greatest creations. So keep living for him. You also mentioned your dad being in pain. Know that God didn't want to take him from you but God so loved him as well that he couldn't bare him being in pain anymore either. Know that your father has a new body now. Is surrounded by love and you will see him again one day. 💙 God Bless!
Grief is a mood that stays with you. It’s a different forms in and it doesn’t always look like sadness. Simply missing that person is the feeling.
As a person, that’s also still dealing with this it takes time. I suggest journaling, and doing some of the things that they liked doing or indulgent some of the foods. Venting helps especially to people that knew that person. Or getting more questions about that person I feel like it’s helpful to understand how my mother was in order for me to understand what decision she would give me if I asked her if she was still here
When nice people die, I find comfort in the knowledge they are in heaven with endless joy and blessing from God. I do not believe good people die, I believe they enter another realm and no longer have the physical power to interfere with your physical life. When you go to heaven one day in old age, he will be waiting for you. For now, live a life that would make him proud and try to love others with the same love he showed you.
You have my deepest sympathy, my friend… Well, at first when my Mom passed away at age 58 it was not far from the Thanksgiving Holiday... Then when her Brother passed away (My Uncle) … It was very hard on me and I took it very hard, but It's best to get the grief out now then to wait many years to come, but no matter what ways we look at it... It's rough on us, and we are never the same.👼🙏
I'm really sorry to hear that! I hope you will feel a little better soon and if you need someone to talk to just say so🙏🏼
To your question.. I don't think i can really answer you cause yeah my father died but I had a horrible one, I was glad and relieved that he went and just had a feeling of grief for my childhood me.
But I would still recommend to cry it out and talk to your loved ones, keeping the good memories up and processing the emotions... take your time🙏🏼
I'm so sorry to hear about your Dad. This has to be extremely difficult. To answer your question. One day at a time. Allow yourself to feel what you're feeling. Also, something helpful to me was to talk about the loved one to others. Tell them all the great stories you have. It might take a bit to get to that point but when you do it will leave you with smiles and keep them in your heart forever
I am terribly sorry 😢 for your loss and I hope he rests in peace and you find your strength as well. Your father was and always will be the most important man in your life since he was always there for you all your life. You cannot replace a father. Don’t bottle your emotions. Talk to someone. Deal with your grief. Celebrate his life with you by living your best life. Make him proud even though he’s no longer around. Lots of warm Hugs for you
Damn. I’ve never lost anyone who meant that much to me so i really dont know. But there are people i cared for and was a bit sad they passed away. All i can say is cry. Let it all out. And just keep reminding yourself he's in a better place. I’m really sorry for your loss
I am so sorry to hear of your dad's passing. I lost my dad when I was 19 so I was young at the time, like you. I had the mindset that I had no choice but to go on. I was in college and it was a bit difficult to concentrate on my studies but it ended up OK.
Sorry to hear that, at least you don't have to worry about his pain in our world anymore, he's resting in his grave until God calls us up, where we will reunite, considering we know very little to nothing about the spiritual realm, it's hard to say he is really gone, besides he always lives through memories if him.
I might suggest church, if you are a person of faith. You might go to grief counseling, and am sure you can find a place to go. I lost my mother, but I was older than you are, but the grief was really overwhelming, and so I understand some of what you feel.
I would probably stay with someone you know, a close friend, someone that can help comfort you when the feelings are at their worst. I would not stay alone, or perhaps you have other family members you are close to.
Pink- I Am sorry for your loss. It was one of the hardest things I ever had to deal with. It will be a confusing times and you may experience emotions that are totally unexpected.
You need to concentrate on the fact that he loved you and try to honor his memory by being the best version of yourself that you can be.
by the way You were a cute baby.
Sorry for your loss.
Unfortunately, there's not much you can do, except surround yourself with the people you love. They'll help you get through this. That and time. It's gonna take awhile, but bit by bit, you'll learn to accept the fact that he's gone. You'll still miss him of course.
It’s only been almost 2 days your dad passed away it’s ok to feel sad and crying for as much as you want he was your dad no one can ever replace him. The pain is going to get better with time hang in there you will never forget the pain but it will get easier for sure. He is your angel now.. who can look after you
My dad also passed away 6 years ago and I can say I feel very sad every time I think of it but the pain is easier ❤️
I give myself a few days to grieve, then on Samhain I celebrate their life and send their soul on its way.
Lean on your friends and take it day by day. I adore you.
I'm sorry for your loss, but how to deal with grief is something no one can answer, it is too deep
I lost my mom 7 years ago after a suicide and I dealt with it by not dealing with if that makes sense
I starved myself until I almost died. Don’t recommend but I hope you start feeling better soon 🖤
So sorry about your loss. Time is the only thing that really helps. It will get easier the more days that pass.
