I know there's not much anyone can say when you're having one of those weeks. My heart goes out to you. I try to keep as much of my personal life out of my blog as I can (except, of course, my sex/dating/relationship life) and so I don't really talk about this stuff on my site but I too suffer from migraines and I've recently lost a parent. There are days when I just want to close the door to my bedroom and not come out. But I do come out. And I know the days and weeks will eventually get better. Not much comfort, I know.

Thanks guys… I’m feeling a lot better today.

I had a long talk with my step-mom (not the one that was married to my Dad when he passed away) and she made sure that I talked through my sadness. Penney’s awesome that way

I know I’ll have my moments, but at least these days, they are moments, and not regular occurrences. That’s a relief.

I had wanted to leave you a comment on your previous post but didn’t get a chance to unfortunately. I’m sure you can attest to this – emotional pain comes out in physical pain… but statements like that don’t change your loss, or how much you’re hurting inside. Keep taking good care of yourself, as well as letting people in your life love you in the way they can.

I understand what you are going through. I lost my mom last February and my mood has often been deeply affected, sometimes for hours, sometimes for days or weeks. The good news is that it does get easier with time. It will soon be 10 years since my brother passed away and although I still miss him, I usually remember things with a smile. Hang in there. Things do get better with time. Luc-Rock Paquin's last blog post: Putting Your Money Where Your Mouth Is

I personally think that grief is a emotion that we tend to hide too much. Embrace your love and grief for your dad. Know there are people all around you that care. I hope you can get a good night’s sleep. Hugs

It’s not ridiculous, not at all. I’m sorry you feel this way. It is heart breaking to miss someone so paramount in your life. Sometimes it feels like memories aren’t enough, like they aren’t even tangible.

I feel lonely these days too my dear. Just like you, I could easily pick up a phone to talk to someone, but then I just..don’t. I hate being lonely, but still often choose to just be alone.

It will get easier, I send you positive thoughts and strength…Even better, a BIG *HUG*
