3 months since I lost my father. I'm absolutely devastated

I lost my father three months ago. I am heartbroken. We were very very close.   It doesn't seem real yet I know I can't see him again. How do you cope with it all?

  • Hi there,

    I'm so sorry to hear of your loss - I can only imagine how incredibly difficult this must be. Everyone's journey of grief is different and always very personal to them. It is lovely to hear that you were so close to your father although of course this will no doubt only be making things tougher at the moment. Things will eventually get a little easier, or at least more manageable. And there is always support available if ever you need it.

    There will be others on this forum who have been through or are going through something similar. So hopefully you'll receive further replies here soon, but do also have a browse or search of the forum if you would like to, to find other discussions and reach out to others on the forum. It is a supportive community and hopefully it can be a help to you in terms of connecting with others.

    If you feel you're struggling, do also have a look at Cruse - they have various different heplful resources, a helpline, and information about local support too.

    Keep taking care of yourself. Try to find pockets of time to focus on the present and on things you enjoy doing, while also allowing time to process your emotions and grief.

    We're always here for support if ever you need it.

    Take care and wishing you all the best,
