Losing a parent

To the people who lost a parent young( I'm 24), how are you coping the loss? I lost my dad 2 months back. It was sudden. I'm still in shock. Many of our peers don't understand the feeling we are going through. How did you find your support system?

I can relate with your situation, I had losted my father at the age of 20 which was totally unexpected (any situation in life is unpredictable). It was very very hard even not expressing how much it holds feelings. But along with the time i had been into depression for 3.5 years since then now seeing things have changed for me. Life is beautiful journey accept the nature and everything..Allow yourself to walk on his good deeds and everything you gained from your beloved father make him proud by showing how much strong and courageous you are..it will take time to you in acceptance. And expect anything from anyone for understanding yourself.. First this is you who should love accept and understand yourself..be support to your family don't be harsh on your emotions and mental health.God is always with you and great life awaiting for with your Blessings of God and your beloved father. Take care
You are strong 💪🏻💯🔥

You can find your support system in one or more of these: Friends/Family/Work/Hobby/Self-improvement

Also please remember that time is the biggest and greatest healer.

You might have to accept that some part of you won't be able to make peace with it ever.

However with time you will remember your parent more happily rather than sadly.

Focus on making yourself and your parent proud of yourself one step at a time.

I can also relate your situation as I lost my mother last year to cancer I was 23 by that time. The horrible thing was, I was aware I will lose her one day but I was unable to do anything to make her survive for at least 3 more years. Then I started moving towards spirituality, I started learning different characters in many mythological episodes and how they passed their emptiness after losing their parents.
