Tomorrow(Nov 6th) will be the 2nd anny of my dads passing. I remember like it was yesterday and I sit here in this computer chair wrapped up in my dads comforter that I saved, balling my eyes out. I have over come so many obstacles through this process but it is just so much to do this every year. I have sheltered my emotions about this from everyone, I feel like more of a bother then anything else. I just want everyone else that feels like they are a bother to talk to anyone about their emotions that I am, that please leave me a msg because I so desperately need someone to talk to. My fiance is the love of my life and he tells me he is there and I believe him but I still feel like a pest, I feel like others want to tell me I need to get over it.

I hold alot of guilt and anger since my dad passed away as we did not get to say goodbye and I did not end on good terms with him. Is it so wrong that I want to die? Is it so wrong that I scream for attention because no one knows the help I so desperately need? Anyone that needs anyone to vent to, I am here and I hope there are ones out there for me. Dad i miss you and I will see you soon.

" I lost my son a little over two years ago and we were not speaking. So i totally get how you feel. It is not wrong the way you are feeling. I feel that way many days. It hurts to think you never got to say you loved them or that you cared. I often wonder if that could have saved him but I guess i will not know until we meet again. The feelings of guilt creep up just about everyday and i feel like life isnt worth it.
But i have his brother my younger son to live for and it sounds like you have your boyfriend. So live we must but forgetting them or the grief thats just a part of who we are now.
Message me if you need a friend.
Hope ive helped.

" Christine - on the negative side - it is wrong to want to die -- but sometimes, it's normal. We feel there's no reason to go on without a loved one. But you have a life ahead of you, and your Dad would want you to live it. You have a fiance, who may want to help - but so many friends / loved ones don't understand the gravity of our grief. Everyone is different. I, too, celebrated two years, two months' anniversary on November 6th - my Mama. I understand the tears, and we're all here to help. "
