Highly recommend talking to a grief counselor. My dad died when I was at college and not processing it almost destroyed me

i lost my dad in the same way you did when i was 16. the mix of emotions you are feeling right now is the most unexplainable thing. i’m only a stranger, but i see you and im sending all the love your way. there is no incorrect way to grieve, just make sure to take time to care for yourself as much as you can during this time.

My grandma always told me to hop on the train or get dragged behind it. Applied that immediately when my dad passed last November and again when she died in May. I’m the unpopular vote here but I’ve never found ruminating to help. Getting back to normal helped. When all the details are wrapped up just…hop on your train.

Grief doesn’t have to make sense and rarely does. Thank god for Todd and the rest of your close loved ones. Take your time with the emotions and don’t shy away from getting to a stable place and shelving it for awhile, it’ll come back around it always does. Hoping life settles down for you soon and for peace for you 💜💜💜

Howdy, I am so so sorry you’re going through this 😞💔 my abusive father died the week before my junior year of college started, I was 20. Coming up on the 6 year anniversary of that, and there’s a lot that I’m still processing and healing from- complex grief is the hardest thing I’ve ever had to process. Something I wish that I knew at the beginning is that your emotions might be all over the place for a while- some days, you might be sad and miss them. Others, you might be angry as hell for the pain they caused you. All feelings are okay- there is no “right” feeling to have about it. (I know it feels like there is sometimes). For now, do whatever you need to take care of yourself. Lean on your supports, would also highly recommend working with a therapist- (took me a few tries to find a good one- but my current one is amazing and saved my life basically). Remember that you have a community that loves you, and it’s okay to take a step back until you’re okay again

Oh god I a so so sorry you are going through this. I lost my dad 3 years ago (cancer) and it still hurts like hell. Grief doesn’t follow a rule book it will constantly come and go. Best advice i can say is let it out. Whether it’s tears or whatever you are feeling, LET IT OUT. Bottling it in may b good for moment but long term may hurt.

As someone who's dad and mom died recently, just... let what feelings you're feeling happen. Regardless of how you feel towards that person. Sadness, grief, happiness, maniacal laughter, all of it. I wish you the best and hope you can sort out everything. <3

Hopefully helpful words from my fiance who also lost their dad in their twenties who they were no contact with: “Be kind to yourself. Whatever you are (or are not) feeling is valid. Be kind to yourself as you process through this and know it will take however long it does. Allow yourself to take that time. Also know that healing will not be linear and some days will be easier than others while some may knock you out. Both are okay. Grieving is strange but it’s important to be kind to yourself.”

I can’t imagine how conflicted you must be feeling. All you can do is try your best to stay grounded and just get the work done. It’s ok to feel both broken and fixed by someone’s death. Grief is strange and complicated.

My dad died the first day of my 2nd year of law school. A grief counselor/therapist will be a must, trust me. I know I’m a random stranger on the internet but if you wanna chat feel free

There's a weird thing about death for those us still here. Life keeps going after and can get weird. You have to deal with absolute heartbreak and then at the same time you're like...I guess i gotta go to like Chipotle cause i still need to eat. Same thing here. May you persevere and heal in peace and love

losing a family member that you had a bad relationship with can be particularly hard, because you're also losing the possibility of ever getting that person back. definitely take your time and speak to whatever therapist or support system you need

Hey man, to everyone saying talk to a grief counsellor, I highly agree but also if you can find one that specializes in trauma as well. My dad died a year and a bit ago and our relationship was incredibly complicated. Grief is complicated. It’s all just complicated and having someone to walk you through the mess little by little will be so helpful.
