"Hi everyone,
I know that I haven't posted in a while. And, maybe you thought that it meant that I was doing well. Well unfortunately, that is not true. Since around the weekend before the one-year anniversary of my father's passing,…"

New to this severity of grief

Hello everyone. I just lost my dad, not even two weeks ago, and I feel like I can't breathe. He was my favorite person in the world and I sometimes question if I can even function without him. Other…Continue

"Hi Liv,
Movies/TV are a trigger for me as well. I was watching a comedy show recently and the comedian was talking about taking their mother off life support and I began to get anxious and realized why. Toward the end of my mom's life I was…"
"Hi everyone,
So, I'd like to tell you all a story today. About two years ago, a movie came out in theaters: Escape Room. I, who had recently been enjoying my fair share of scary movies and thrillers, was really looking forward to going to see…"

"Hi everyone,
A year ago today was Father's Day. I know that it was technically yesterday, and that yesterday was difficult on it's own too, but I still can't help but to think about my last Father's Day with my dad today…"
"I'm sorry, Liv. You're right it's not fair. Your dad should be there celebrating with you. I'm sorry he's not. <3"
"Hello everyone. Today is my dad's birthday. He would be turning sixty-two.
Being in his sixties, and having a teenager is a little uncommon, and with having a stage four cancer on top of that, there was always the semi-unspoken want for…"
"Hi everyone.
I took my last final yesterday. It is officially summer for me. It is also my first summer without my dad. Summer is such a broad term for some people. For most kids, it meant no school, but for me, it meant more fun times with my dad.…"

"Hi everyone.
I found out that I got into my major's program today. It's a very fancy combined bachelors/masters program, and it only accepts sixty students a year. To say that I was nervous about it, would be an understatement. I was…"
"I don't understand how anyone's grief can be anything OTHER than "complicated". My husband died 8 years ago, and I feel my grief as strongly now as I did the day he died. The intensity of it tends to be more in punches, rather…"
"Six months ago my world fell apart
My world stopped, I'm still waiting for it to start
The world still spins, and that's the saddest part
Now I'm only left with the shattered pieces of my heart
That's not the only thing…"
"Hi everyone.
So I think I figured out why I've been so upset lately, other than the obvious. I realized that everything started falling apart about a year ago. That's when my dad really started to decline. I still don't really know…"
"Hi Liv,
So sorry to hear about this. I am in the same boat, some of my friends, do not ask me how I am feeling and some do, but I can not expect them to know how to deal with this HUGE loss. So I try and not take it personally. No…"

"Just so you know...
I can't stop grieving just because you believe it is time for me to move on.
I can't stop hurting just because you do not understand the piercing pain in my heart.
I cannot stop my tears from flowing just because they make you uncomfortable.
My heart is not suddenly mended just because you believe that I have grieved long enough.
I will grieve the loss of my loved one for the rest of my life.
Just so you know."

Hi Liv. Thank you. Your comment really helped and I feel like even though the relationships we had were different we had a lot in common. The person I loved passed away from cancer too and because of Covid we never got to spend anytime together and I really feel like I missed so much because I couldn't be with him. It is hard to lose someone and each day my emotions seem to be everywhere.

Hi Liv - I joined this forum two years ago after losing my brother to cancer. I haven't visited the site much since, but I randomly got an e-mail notification about your post that brought me here. I am very sorry to hear about your dad. That sounds like a truly painful experience. Please know that you are not alone in your grief, and you're welcome to message me if you ever want to chat. Take care <3

"Thanks, Jeff. It just hit me really hard, that sense of a lack of coziness, warmth, home. Even the simple pleasures aren't pleasures now. In the past, during the winter, when it would snow and my husband and I would be cuddled up in bed…"
"So sad and so understandable. I like what you said about how any sense of coziness is gone. That says so much."
