losing my father
I lost my father in a car accident 10 years ago. I thought I was over it, but last night I had an anxiety attack while trying to sleep. I don't fully understand why this is happening, but I know one thing: in the 10 years I've lived without my father, there has been zero self-confidence, lots of tears and failure. Even though I want to improve my quality of life, I can't escape this reality. I can never compete with people who have fathers

I'm very sorry to hear about your father's passing. Even though time does heal wounds, it doesn't necessarily mean that the wounds will ever completely go away, and that's totally okay. It doesn't have to go away completely and It's possible to live life to the fullest while carrying our hardships at the same time and i hope that one day you can find the happiness and peace that you've been looking for
I'm not sure if my post helps or not but i hope it does..at least a little bit. May your father rest in peace and may you find the strength to cope with all your hardships. Remember that you are stronger than your strongest hardships and you don't have to go through it all alone because you are always welcome to vent here on 7 cups.
Sending you lots of support 💙

Losing a parent is difficult even after a long time...
i can feel your pain and your father must have been a big support for you. I think you can change and change your life as a piece of him lives on in you look inside for the support and confidence you felt leave when he passed.Â

I lost my father to suicide march 25 2025 here at my home in my bedroom and I found him . I have been struggling very badly like there is no light at the end of the tunnel . I was also only attached to my father since birth , when my parents split up my dad took custody of me so this makes it even harder for me to. I just want to live a normal life again. I have 3 kids one is 21 and I have 10 year old twin boys that need me and it has been very difficult . I feel terrible I didn’t go out much at all for their summer break . I just feel like I am failing . I just lay in bed all day every day . I just hope it gets better at some point . I feel your pain and it is yes very difficult
