Hey everybody,

I am new to this group and to online forum in general. I am very much a pen and paper person but I need support that I can get at any time of day due to full time work and parenting!

Dad died on May 2nd this year and after the initial pain I thought I would be ok. As it turns out, the grief has snuck up behind me and I am really missing the hell out of him. How do others deal with this?

    Hey Jane
    Im new too. Im the exact same. I lost my dad on May 14th this yr unexpectadly. I found it easier to deal with then than I do now. I miss him more now than i did in them first few weeks after. I am too struggling with everything. Having a smile and keeping going is so hard at the moment.

      I can totally relate.  I think that is one of those myths also.   I will never so called "get over it"  and I don't know that I want to.  I will somehow adjust to this new way.  My dad died almost a year ago and I struggle just as much now and more as the day it happened.  There is no right formula for grieving.  That's just how much they meant to us when we feel this way myself included.  Some people may never understand my void but that's ok.
