Hi!
I’m struggling at the moment, and come across this website reading the forums it sounded really helpful.
I lost my dad 5.5 years ago. However it feels like yesterday
I havnt accepted at all that his gone
I lost him in feb and was getting married in august. Then went on to build a new house and then a farm. Took a few promotions at work. And just feel like it’s been non stop. And now I’m struggling, I have had dizziness for last couple of years and had all medical checks there is nothing wrong with me. It’s come down to stress.
I hadn’t lost anyone before my Dad, I took over ‘man of the house’ since he passed and support my mum. Which I am so proud I can do for Dad. But it’s so hard.
I can’t talk about my dad without bursting into tears but then immediately stop and stop thinking about him
Which I believe is my problem, I can easily switch it off and ignore it.
And ‘I’m too busy to cry I havnt got time for that’ is my go to excuse!
I started seeing a bereavement councillor last week - hoping that can help and as such be my switch off/ cry time!
Thanks for reading x

Hi Cassie,
So sorry to hear about your dad, it’s so good to talk about things, I am new to this site too and just being able to be in a community that understands had made such a difference. Keep posting, it doesn’t have to be a regular thing.
