Not many people are comfortable talking about it

@Hope

It is different for everyone and no one should measure their grief against others.  too many people IMO try to figure out if they are showing the "right" amount of sympathy or grief instead of processing it in their own way and time.

@Hope

It doesn't just apply to death but to loss in general.

@Hope

It affects everyone directly and there's no right or wrong way to grieve.

@countrygirl9988 Hey :)  I just meant that there's alot of big emotions that can come with grief. Plus if there's any added responsibilities. If you're losing sleep and not eating right - it's exhausting

@countrygirl9988 I'm sorry about your dad. It's not easy to lose a parent. It's understandable that you're still in denial. Tbh I'm still in denial myself at times. When I get a text sometimes I'll think it's from my father. Logically I know it can't be him but I still think it could be. I guess with time we move past the denial stage. But from what I understand it's not unusual to go back and forth. It's a hard reality to accept

@countrygirl9988 *sending you and your family peace and strength* Is there something you can do together as a way to honor his memory? It won't make the pain you feel go away of course but it might help ease it

You'll be in my thoughts

countrygirl9988 February 9th

@countrygirl9988       girlie, your right. you wont be able to ever get used to the grief of loosing your dad but you will eventually adapt and grow used to the pain. i dont think you ever "get better" after loosing someone for example: you father prematurely. you just grow used to the pain. you do "Get better" after a breakup or something, but the larger losses in life...you never really do. 

each day however will grow a little easier every day. just keep going, keep pushing yourself. your always going to miss him but as you live life youll miss him a little less all day every day. you will have moments of tears cause you miss him so much, but wipe away those tears when ur done, and keep going. thats all you can ever really do in life. is get back into the saddle and keep going.

@Hope

One thing I wish I knew about grief is probably the process time, because when I first heard I lost a family member everyone around me broke down. They were crying and sobbing, but I didn't feel anything. It wasn't until after the funeral that is actually sunk in that she was gone. Like I would never see her again in my life, and I cried uncontrollably
