Delayed Grief

Losing a parent
1

I lost my dad to pancreatic cancer and myeloma in 2021. I had a bit of a breakdown in 2023 and suffered what I thought was delayed grief and was off work for 3 months.

Today, my fiancé’s gran passed away quite suddenly and I have found it very triggering for me and has brought back so many feelings about my own loss.

I feel like I need to talk more openly about my dad as I know I have bottled a lot over the years and have not been great at expressing how I really feel until I crack.

I’m wondering if anyone can recommend where I can get some advice or support on delayed grief?

Thanks for reading :slightly_smiling_face:

What about writing in a journal how you feel? I find it helps me.

I’m sorry to hear that you feel like this.
Ask your doctor @K_A , they can surely help & also it may be that you’re ready for counselling now if you feel up to talking.
