Shortly after I lost my dad I was in denial. Talked about him like he was still here and also kept telling my friends I didn't lose him. They had to help me snap out of it and say it's ok to grieve because I didn't wanna let go or accept the fact that he wasn't coming back as I kept saying.

I keep his picture next to my bed and I find myself talking to it all the time or yelling at it when times I'm mad he's gone. His year anniversary is in a month and it still feels like yesterday. Everyone has different stages and grieves differently. I have my good days and bad days still. This site has helped me alot cos I can talk to all you guys. With my surroundings I always feel like no one understands as most I know haven't lost a parent yet.
