Hi all, I’m new to the group and reaching out for support. I recently lost my dad after a short term illness and I’m struggling to hold things together and try to be strong while I get my mum through this. I know I’m not alone as I’m surrounded by people but I’m struggling to open up about how I’m feeling.
