Do you think my grandpa is being insensitive about my daddy’s death?

So my grandpa when into my room, fed up with me laying on my bed all day and pulled me out of bed. He said, “Get up! NOW!”
I didn’t want to but he didn’t take no for an answer and didn’t listen to me. He pointed at me and sternly scolded at me, “You listen
here young lady! You’ve been like this since your dad’s passing and laying in bed every day and wasting your life isn’t healthy! You need to get help and I’m getting it for you and YOU ARE GOING! Plus you haven’t been looking for your job and we’re fed up with you laying around all day doing nothing! You’re getting bigger since you haven’t been exercising! (Ouch harsh)
You’re 19! You should be exploring the world and enjoy life! Death shouldn’t stop you from living life. Life goes on! What have you been doing all day?!
I told him I laid in bed, are junk food, watched movies avoiding my friends angry, blunt voicemail. Then he cut me off and said, “Did you look for work at least?”
I told him no I’m too depressed and I’m just going to volunteer online and I’m autistic so I can’t do anymore and I’m a looser. He cut me off and yelled at me, “WELL YOU BETTER DO SOMETHING!! I’m getting tired of these lame excuses! Stop using autism as an excuse and volunteer won’t pay the bills. If you’re not live with us need to get a job or at least do some! We’re fed up! Tomorrow, I expect you to do something productive with yourself, look for a job that will PAY you. You wanna get paid. You lost your other job you can look for another one. STOP WITH THESE PITIFUL EXCUSES!” And he walked away and slammed the door. He didn’t have to yell at me and he made me cry some more. I’m a teen. He needs to stop yelling at me. 💔💔💔💔💔😭😭😭😭😭
I need my mommy and daddy but their both dead! 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

Sorry long rant.

Well someone had to give you a push. Sometimes tough love is the way to do it and your grandpa means well. You can’t just write down being depressed and do nothing all day. Get your grown ass up and do something for yourself. Get a job and help pay the bulls. Don’t be a lazy good for nothing leach. Death is hard I get it, but laying down depressed every day isn’t a good thing and you can’t be sad ALL THE TIME! It’s effecting your life and you’re making it worse for yourself. Sorry but it’s the truth. I know it will be in person doesn’t wanna hear the hard truth but it I needs to be said. What do you think if your father saw you laying around all day moping around because he’s deceased? Huh?

@ElizabethBabe1994 nobody understands that I’m going through a loss but they expect me to hold it together and move on since I’m an adult. I’m 19! I’m still a teenager! My dad would have told me to get my ass up, stop moping found the house and get a job. Stop using my disability as an excuse

My sister needs some of that. She's 23 with no job and my parents think that's a perfectly normal way to live. I don't even bother saying anything anymore

@HannibalMontanimal Oh. We’ll don't me too harsh like my grandpa. He doesn’t understand that I’m so heartbroken and I don’t wanna do anything anymore and just lie around in my bed. He was rude for saying I’m getting bigger since I’m gaining weight. He could have said it in a NICER WAY!

@LaylaTheTallGirl I don't think there is a nice way to say it

@HannibalMontanimal whats that supposed to mean? That my grandpa had every right to be insensitive and mean? I’m going through a hard time! I’m heartbroken
💔💔💔💔💔💔😭😭😭😭😭😭

If I remember correctly, your dad sometimes laid down the law to you and told you to toughen up and do what you needed to do. Do you think your grandfather is telling you what your dad would want him to tell you?

Is this what your parents would have wanted. If i was like you i think mine would have come back from the grave and kicked my ass and told me to get on with my life. You need to do the same. Never forget them but live again its what they would want x
