No coping at all.

I lost my dad in August. Myself & my daughter lived with my dad. Over the last week everything has been going wrong, fridge, radiators, boiler all breaking down. My dad dealt with all this, and as a retired plumber & water inspector, he knew how to deal with the plumbing side of things. I just worry about everything. My daughter is the reason why I go on. Even though I have friends and relatives I am so loney and depressed.

I can relate. No children, but my dad and I lived together too and the emptiness hits us harder because of it. Everything around me reminds me that he was just here and now isn’t. I’m sorry you have to deal with practical issues, that’s the last thing one needs while grieving. Hugs of support. :heart:

I feel so selfish when other people are going through the same thing. My friend lives with her mother and her dad died just after mine. Take care of youself. I bet you’ re dreading christmas too. Sorry for your loss.

Don’t feel selfish, we can only feel what we feel and your pain isn’t less because others have their own pain to deal with. Yes, I dread Christmas so much, it’s bad enough with the adverts already. Try to take care of yourself too and your daughter. :heart:

Hi There. My anxiety levels have raised since having my third covid vacine last month, & since I already have blood pressure, it has been elevated, along with my pulse rate. Everyone tells me I am stronger than I think, but it’s not how it feels to me. I miss my dad soo much. I hope things get better for you in time, as I hope it will be with me too. Take care of yourself.
