My father just past away one month ago, how do I get over it?

Answer 1

I lost my father to a battle with cancer in April of 2004. I'm not over and don't expect to ever be over the loss but I am learning day by day to live with the loss by focusing the love I had for him when he was alive to the rest of my family.

Answer 2

I'm sorry to hear about your Dad. I lost mine 9 months ago and I still haven't accepted it. I was a daddy's girl. I love him very much. It so hard to lose someone that has been a part of your life for so long. I just try to think of all the good times we had together and take one day at a time. I still cry sometimes and it's okay to. It's going to get better as time goes by and know it will and it will for you too! God Bless you and may god give your strength during this time of loss.

Answer 3

You never really "get over it". The pain lessens a bit every day and one day you'll be able to remember the good times and wonderful feelings without having the grief take over. I lost my Dad in Nov. of 2001. I always thought that they would have to commit me when he died - he was the very best. But I celebrated his life and am thankful that he was mine. I might not have had him for very long like other people, but the time I had with him was the very best.

On Father's Day, write a note to him on a balloon and let it go up in the air. It's kind of cool and makes you feel happy.

Answer 4

You can't put a time line on it. It takes time...the first year is the hardest. After some time the loss and grief finds a special place in your heart and you go on. The loss is always there, but your life goes on. My father died 21 years ago and I still miss him. But I am not consumed by grief. I miss his always being there for me. He was my rock and I could always count on him. Plus he was a great man who loved his family. He never had a chance to meet his grand and great grandchildren. Cherish all the good times you had together and admire his good qualities.

Answer 5

You don't get over it. But with time it won't hurt so much. Many places offer grief support groups and you might find it helpful. Don't be afraid to talk about your dad. Some people may be uncomfortable at first but help them see that is what you need to do. I'm sorry for your loss.

I am still dealing with the issue 15 years later. Read some of the books by george anderson or john edwards. It'll help calm you down when you realize they are just in a different place.

Answer 8

I never lost a parent but did lose a really close cousin. I still am not over it but it took me about five years to move on. It was really hard to get over. Remember that he will always guide you even though you can't see him. Time will heal you!

Answer 9

its funny how we as a people do the opposite of what the bible tells us to do. we are supposed to cry when someone is born and rejoice when someone dies. you will not see you physical dad anymore but he will always be with you in your heart and spirit. just think if he was sick he is in a better place now a place where he has no pain and is smiling down at you. sorry for your loss...

Answer 10

theres really no way to get over it but you have to move on and just remeber the good times. it is always hard to loose a loved one but you must focus on the good times the fun times and think about where they are now. focus also on your family they are all you have.good luck.
