I feel overwhelmed. How do I cope with this?!


Question:

I feel overwhelmed. How do I cope with this?

My father died earlier this month from cancer. The first few weeks, I thought I was handling everything OK. I knew I had to help my mom deal with everything and be strong for my daughter- now it's like everything has hit me at once and I just feel like I don't want to keep going. I hurt so bad, but when I feel like I need to cry, the tears won't come. I've been physically ill with stomach problems since my father passed, and every time I get upset, I get sick instead of crying. I just want to stay at home and sleep- I don't want to get dressed, or fix my hair or do my make up. I just want to sleep. I'm kind of scared of how I'm feeling because I have a lot of times where I feel like I want to die so I don't have to live w/o my dad. I know I need some kind of help to deal with everything- does anyone have suggestions?

You need professional grief counselling, not the ignorant guessing of Y!A. Good luck!
