I Havent Been the Same Since My Father Died

The loss of a loved one is hard, parent, spouse, it is the hardest to deal with. Writing and talking about the pain, grief, the physical pain, it does help to deal with all of those feelings. I hate when people say, I know what you are going through, yet they have not lost a parent or spouse, it's not the same as when a good friend passes, it is different.

There will be a time when you can put your feelings into words, either writing or talking about the feelings. Not going to lie, it's not easy. You will be able to sort your feelings, the pain, grief, anger, etc at some point. It takes longer for some than others. A deep breath and trying to focus on the good times might help, it did for me. Every morning I woke and would talk to the person I lost. I did this for a long time, and it helped me.

Hope you don't mind but.. here are big hugs to you.

The best medicine is time. There are no magic answers that will take it away. Concentrate on the good memories and events that make you smile. He would not want you to fill your life with sadness. It is hard and always will be, but time will help ease the hurt.

You will be ok eventually just not right now
