I use to love adult coloring pages. I miss waking up to a cup of coffee and coloring out on my porch sometimes I would take a blanket and lay in the warm sun.Now I struggle to shower😔

Struggling to shower is a classic symptom of depression. I am not familiar with your other illness, although I just looked it up online to get some idea of what you're dealing with. I'll be here for a while if you feel like talking.

Mullinax, I am so sorry for your loss and the way you witnessed it.

I lost my father in a home accident and watched him pass. I can feel

your pain. Sincerest sympathy. x

I see the pain and emptiness in your eyes.

I was a paramedic at the time and was able to keep my composure

while my dad was transported to the hospital. I didn't cry at the wake or

funeral. Then it hit me a couple weeks later and I was in therapy for

a long time grieving my loss. Know that I understand your pain and

emptiness. My heart goes out to you. You are not alone xx

I was a daddy's girl if I had a problem or just wanted to talk he was always there. I didn't realize I seen him hit and watched his broken body hit the ground for 7 days later it hit me I was admitted to a inpatient hospital

I can relate. My dad tragically fell down a flight of steps.

When I got there, the paramedics had already arrived. I disconnected

myself from any emotion. You can't believe what you are seeing.

I too was a daddy's girl who enjoyed our talks. Family came first for him.

Thank you for sharing your painful experience. Together with the help

of this forum we will support you because we all care. x

Holiday season is the worst I didn't shower for 6 days. I slept 14 hours a day.

I agree the holidays and just this time of the year.

You are here now among friends as we take one day at

a time. x

Please accept my condolences. I lost my father to lung cancer many years ago, but I was much older at the time than you are. It is a shattering experience. I am very sorry.
