I Miss My Dad He Passed Away Unexpectedly

I lost my dad suddenly in 2009 when I was 12 years old. I was at school when I was taken out from a science lesson to go to the headmasters office. When I got there my mum was there in tears. She told me that my dad had collapsed at work after suffering a fatal heart attack and had been pronounced dead at the scene. I felt numb. Empty. Scared and shocked. That day has haunted me ever since and was the trigger of my mental health problems.

Very very sorry for that...the way you were notified was not the right one for someone your age...it should have been at home, surrounded by family, hugging you and telling you he had a peaceful dreamt into passing away...sweet tender words, not the cold office of a school...no doubt your mind resented that. My best wishes for your recovery...therapy would help a lot my dear girl....
