It’s been two years since I lost my dad and the pain is worse now than it was for the first year and a half. I was numb for the first year and a half. I hide my grief as I,m made to feel I should be getting over it by now. I suffer with anxiety and panic attacks and just want to know how long this pain lasts. I feel I,ll never get over this loss and I,m completely devastated.

I know it seems a long time but my mum died 18 months ago and I still can’t get over it. I should have spent more time with her towards the end and was going to after retirement but she died a week later and so regret it. I really hope it gets better soon for us both
Hi
I,m so sorry for your loss. There is always regret. I don’t think you ever get over it. I think you have to learn how to live with it. Wish I knew how to do that, maybe time will help. In a perfect world none of us would have to face this amount of pain. Thinking of you and hope you can find some peace.
Dear css, I think you are so right, you never get over it but hopefully with time I will get used to it. I hope you find peace also. I don’t feel like seeing old colleagues, too upsetting so I think I will keep myself to myself for a while apart from family and close friends. Maybe next year…
Hi peter
I,m much the same. I only feel comfortable around friends and family. We just have to do what’s best for us to cope with this. I read your post. I too lost 4 friends and family the year before my dads passing and three of my beloved pets. Too much for a person to cope with and it’s all just caught up with me. Look after yourself the one little thing that’s helps me a little is knowing that my dad will always be my dad and nobody and nothing can take that away from me. Your mum will always be your mum x
