I can’t bear the though of never seeing my dad again

My lovely dad died in November last year, most days I fill so I can't think about it but then there are days when it all floods back to me. Most people expect after a few months you've got over it but  life is now not the same. The pain I feel when I think of my dad is too much, it hurts so much, I miss him terribly. I see my mum most days, she keeps very busy to block the pain she feels too. I feel overwhelmed with grief this evening. 
Im considering counselling but not sure it will help as I just want my dad back and that's not going to happen. Feel so low but everyone thinks I'm ok. 
Thank you for reading this.

  • I'm so sorry for your loss RD.

    I can see from your post how much you loved your dad and I can't begin to imagine how difficult life has been since he passed away but I really do hope you can take some strength, and comfort, from knowing you are not alone. 

    So many of our members have also gone through the pain and heartbreak the loss of a loved one brings so our community will really understand what you are feeling right now and I'm sure some of them will be along soon to offer their support and advice.

    You can also seek out support from bereavement charities such as Cruse Bereavement Support and Sue Ryder, the latter of which offers free short term support for anyone who is grieving and struggling with their loss.

    I know nothing I can say can make this very difficult time any better but we are here for you and will do all we can to help.

    Kind regards,
