• The General Mental Health Forum is now a Read Only Forum. As we had two large areas making it difficult for many to find, we decided to combine the Mental Health & the Recovery sections of the forum into Mental Health & Recovery as a whole. Physical Health still remains as it's own area within the entire Recovery area.

    If you are having struggles, need support in a particular area that you aren't finding a specific recovery area forum, you may find the General Struggles forum a great place to post. Any any that is related to emotions, self-esteem, insomnia, anger, relationship dynamics due to mental health and recovery and other issues that don't fit better in another forum would be examples of topics that might go there.

    If you have spiritual issues related to a mental health and recovery issue, please use the Recovery Related Spiritual Advice forum. This forum is designed to be like Christian Advice, only for recovery type of issues. Recovery being like a family in many ways, allows us to support one another together. May you be blessed today and each day.

There's not really I whole lot I can say that will ease the sadness you are feeling. Just remember that even though he isn't physically here anymore, he will live forever in the hearts of those who loved him. He's your guardian angel now looking down from heaven to watch over and protect you. It's hard not being able to give him a hug, but I promise he's always listening whenever you have something to say.

I'll say a prayer for you tonight in hopes that God restores peace in your life.

the death of my dad has caused depression in me until i let him go and be with God,let him go and let time heal :)

see i knew she(MOM) was hanging on for me,
A friend was praying on the phone and said I have to let her go. I was crying and saying: I love you momma,
I release you to be with Jesus if you want to go.
fogive me for being selfish by keeping you here.
You can go with Jesus.

I have been sending depression back to the devil.
maybe I need to let go of her emotionally cause we were very close.

what you said is deep.

I lost my father on the day prior to Thanksgiving. He was killed in an automobile accident. My parents were divorced but I was still very close to them and still am to my mother. I am a happily married Christian who knows God is soverign but dads death has plunged me into depression.
I suggest you go to a Grief Support Group or a Bereavement Group. I am going to one right now and am learning a lot.
