HI Jesse....welcome.



The hurt never goes Jesse, but it fades and I'm sure you have treasured memories of your Dad and brother that you can look back on and gain strength from.

Hello Jesse.



I'm very sorry you are going through this.



I lost my mother this past June from cancer. We were pals. Half my world is gone. I believe I can empathize.



You have to do it one minute at a time, then one hour at a time. Then one day at a time. It sounds cheesy but you have to press on and just work on taking one more step, one at a time. Don't look too far ahead at first.



Have you thought about a grief support group? I haven't tried one but for some people they seem to help.



Are you religious or spiritual? Do you have any rituals or things you do in your loved ones' memory? Honoring them in your own special way can be a big comfort, even if it's as simple as lighting a candle for them or writing your feelings down in a letter to them.



Just talking to people helps me. It seems like everyone is there when you first lose someone and then after the first month, they're gone like everything's back to normal. It's those later months that you really need someone to listen to your pain. Like the holidays and stuff. I think you'll find a lot of us here are more than willing to give you support. :)
