I Dont Know Where To Put This Story

I have spent every weekend for the last few months at my father’s house while he was ill. Now that he is gone, I am not sure how to pick up the pieces and carry on. A friend had told me before that I needed closure. He suggested a letter just to get my feelings out. I chose not to do it; I thought I could handle all the emotions that were going to hit me. Of course hurt was the main one, but now anger is setting in and I have nowhere to direct it to.

Here lately it seems like its one thing after another, making me feel very weak and out of control. I don't know where to go or what to do. I have so many things running through my head and it’s overwhelming.

This weekend I will be home, and that thought frightens me...

I went through all those emotions when I lost my dad. Sadness, confusion, anger, and sometimes relief. To top it off, I took on his work and saw hints of him everywhere I went. I came close to full blown depression. I think this was the first time I truly felt like I was grown. I no longer had a back up plan. I'm sorry for your loss. I wish I had words of wisdom, but the fact is it's freaking hard to lose a parent. Time truly heals. It will get better. Hang in there my friend.

I wish like hell I was there for you. Your friend is right though...writing is a good start. Write out everything that's in your head and heart. You don't have to share it with anyone or even read what you write. The fear, anger and pain need an outlet...let your words do the work so the healing and light can fill you and give you some peace.

too much negative to face by writing this down, I don't think I can handle it

You need to do it. It's important. Write it ALL then lose control; scream, sob, shake uncontrollably for however long it takes...then set the paper on fire.
And still...I love you my sister

We all grieve in our own way. Sorry for your loss. My 95 year old dad fell ill last March and I'm his souls caregiver. It has given me purpose in life. I try not think of the future. Take care of yourself. Enjoy a nice bubble bath, relax, eat your favorite foods. Be gentle with yourself. Bless you.

Am so sorry to hear of your loss. My thoughts and prayers are with you
My Mom passed in January and yes, there are days that are difficult, but I know she'd want me to carry on to the best of my abilities each day.

Remember that there is no correct way to grieve. Take your time and heal at your own pace.
