• 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.

I lost my dad a year ago in May. I still cry every day and feel a great sense of saddness.

I miss him and he wanted to live and loved life. He never spoke of dying so I think that's why it's so hard for me because he wasn't ready.

I can't find any comfort and my mind is in torment.

You must have been very close to you Dad and that is a good thing. It has been 7 years since I lost both of my parents and I miss them terribly to this day - they were my pillars, my cheerleaders, and my best friends - the only ones who knew who I am and why. Do you go to a church or read the bible? God promises to comfort those of us who grieve and he does. What can we do for you??:angel:

Thanks LadyT for your kind words.
I'm sorry to hear that you lost both of your parents. I hope you have found some kind of peace and comfort. I know how hard it must be. My mom will be 80 in September, she is doing pretty well health wise but I'm concerned about her driving abilities. I also would like to get her to sell her house and get into a condo but she is refusing.
She misses my dad a lot too. He was such a great guy and loved his children and grandchildren more then anything. He had a terrific sense of humor and always made everyone laugh. He was never without a smile.
I better quit rambling on.
Have a Good Day and thanks for your support.
Karen
