It is exactly 3 months today (or 13 weeks) since the sad loss of my dear Father.

Just sat thinking about him and feeling a little lost. I miss him so much, my heart still aches. These last 13 weeks have been a rollercoaster ride and the rollercoaster is still going, when will it begin to slow down? will it ever stop?

I wanted to write a bit more about how I feel right now, but can't seem to find words to describe it. am I angry, am I sad, am I happy I just don't know...wellI hope I feel better in the morning

I'd like to thank you all Mac friends for being here for me when I've needed advice and most times when I've just wanted a chat.

Lots of HUGs

Perfectly natural how your emotions are all over the place at moment and will probably be so for a few weeks yet. As long as you acknowledge to yourself that your are feeling this, then you know you are human. Hope you feel a wee bit better when you wake up. xxxx (((Hugs )))

Oh how I can relate to this right now. My dad passed away 5 months ago and I am finding it harder than ever right now. I miss him more and more as time goes on.

I am on antidepressants, but they are not working, so the doctor has doubled the dose. I am angry, sad, lost, empty, numb - the list goes on, but I guess it is all perfectly normal.

I hope you are feeling better soon. Please let me know how you are doing.

Best wishes, Christine xx

Hope you feel a bit better when you wake up this morning. It is perfectly natural to feel this way, so please try not to beat yourself about it, but I know we all do this automatically. Sometimes I try to think of a pleasant memory and hold onto it as I get into bed, sometimes it works. Take Care and speak soon xxx and (((Hugs)))
