Was he a religious man?

I am really sorry man, I cannot even imagine what you are going through. My advice is to remember the good times, make a small monument in the backyard, and do what he would have wanted you to do.

Well I am really sorry to hear that. One way I remove stress is just cursing really loud it just calms me down sometimes. Or I load up a violent game on the easiest mode and just blast away at everything.

That's really sad. I almost lost my grandpa 3 years ago and can't even imagine what I would have felt if he would have past away.

Regards,

Whoa this is sad. You have my deepest condolences for both you and your family. And make sure to be there for your mom. Because the loss of your dad is probably going to be really hard on her right now.

And as many in this thread has said before. If you need to talk, we're here for ya. And if you need someone to talk 1 on 1 with. Just let me know.


Also, I lost my grandpa earlier this year. So I know how you feel somewhat.

I'm not sure you really want advice, or you want anyone to tell you that they can relate to you; but I'm going to throw something out there anyway, feel free to hate me/ignore me.

My girlfriend lost her dad to sudden heart failure just about a year ago, and was supposedly a wreck (mentally, emotionally, and physically). She still lets out a good cry once in a while, which is completely understandable, but she claims that she has made the situation better by surrounding herself with people that make her happy, the ones that love her. Not to sound like the knight in shining armor, but she gives me a lot of the credit in that; apparently I've made a decent effect on her life.

Anyway, moral of the story; surround yourself with the people you want in your life. Those who love you will be willing to take time and consideration to bond with you and help you out indefinitely. Also, even the most negative of people can surprise you in situations like this. Don't be afraid to show your feelings to anyone and everyone, it'll help you out.

I'm deeply sorry, again.

Trust Sky, man. Although it might not be the same for all, I spent so long crying over being dumped by my girlfriend (you'll understand how I feel when you actually love someone, it's pretty much the same as dying, but not QUITE as bad). I sat at home on various electronics for many months, but to be honest, my life only improved when I got out of my house, even if it was all alone. It especially improved, however, when I was with friends. But she left me with pretty much no friends, so I went out and made some. Sometimes, change is needed. No matter what the scenario, you need to learn to adapt to the current situation.

Hope this helps somewhat!
