Hi
Just feeling a little lost. Dad passed 2 months ago and I was doing ok but Im really struggling now. Everything annoys me and I dont have any motivation for daily routine. Just feel like I want to hide away and be alone.
I have close family and supportive partner but I'm struggling to share how I'm feeling.
Thanks
Hi 612charl
Welcome to our community, I hope you find it both informative and supportive.
Sorry to hear about your dad, many find the time just after the death of a loved one quite busy with the funeral and all the admin that goes with it but when things quiet down then the loss can really emerge. There is of course no right way to grieve but it can often be easier to speak to a complete stranger than someone close. If you feel it might help there are two charities that specialise in this cruse bereavement care and the loss foundation.
Hopefully as time passes you will find it easier to think about all the good times you had and make him proud of how you have turned out.
<<hugs>>
