I am happy that you are getting back on the clean track and I really am so sorry that you had to go through this. I am sending lots of hugs, love, and prayers your way.
Yeah, having to quit pills cold turkey a couple months ago was the worst thing ever. But having my dad ripped from me? And me finding him? OMG, I'm just so traumatized. We talked every day. He helped me through one of the worst days of w/d's. I'm not ready to say goodbye. I'm over the pills though. That was stupid. I don't care though, not that big of a deal. Ladies, love to you both. THanks for the prayers, I need and appreciate them. Goodnight. :(
i a so sorry for your loss...the pain you are feeling must be over whelming...
but you have to care for yourself hun, first and foremost. you have to carry on and be strong, i know, easier said than done...

You never have to say good-bye, your Dad lives on inside, in you in your heart, he will always be there. My heart goes out to you. Limbo
Flutter,
I feel so bad for you, I can feel your emptiness. I know it has to be awful. And now to add to it, you have to get off the drugs again. I can't blame you though, I don't think I would have been strong enough either. I know there's really no words that will take away the pain, only time will lighten your load. Take care of yourself.
Hugs to you,
Magi
My heart goes out to you...I lost my father in August 2001 and throughout our detox, I have felt such sorrow. There are times it is still so fresh...I know nothing I can say will ease your pain but you are in our thoughts and prayers.
Draw the strength you need from your father...I still do that alot.
Peace
I am sorry about your dad...losing mine is so scary...the thought of it...but i know I will one day....perhapps with only usin 3 days the WDs will not be too bad...keep posting..you know what you have to do now..let me know if I can help in any way
I am so sorry for your loss...I am glad u are back u were missed...Grieving is such a difficult process..I can't even begin to tell you i understand, like u my dad is my best friend, and i still have him, one day i know i will not...
Since u were using , u probably will feel more of the mental part, so just prepare yourself...But in order to have closer you need to feel and not be numb...We are all here to help you.....
Again i am sorry...

When I lost my mother is when my use of the pain pills got really out of hand so please be careful. We want to numb this pain and push it away. Really what you have to do is feel it and deal with it. If you don't do it now you will have to at some point.
As Toxictome says there are 5 stages of grief so read that info. I know you are feeling like your heart has been ripped out and there is nothing there but an empty hole. These are horrible but normal feelings and the pills will not make that go away.
Hugs,

I'm not going to take anymore pills. It did help numb the pain, I shed alot less tears, but tears are normal. I just can't believe my Dad's gone, just like that. It's going to be a tough road ahead of me. I could care less about counting days of sobriety at this point. I know I have to be sober....that's truth. But this pain, cuts so deep into my soul, it's hard to breath, or want to go on......it's that bad. He's so young, and full of life. This is just so tragic. THank you for your thoughts. I don't know how active I'll be here on the forum, I've got so much going on here in my mind and home....but I'll check in.
again I am so sorry i will continue to say prayers for you and your family .....

Flutter:
I have been praying for you and will continue to keep you in my thoughts and prayers.
Praying for you and know the pain of losing someone it is not nice but we have to keep on at least for the others here. I am praying for you. Nothing really anyone can say that helps so just hang in there. Denial seemed to help alot for me I still think most of the time I am in denial especially when I joke around. U no??
man this is bringing tears to my eyes. In the gut.
I so wish there was something I could say to take your pain away. Please just know you are in my thoughts and prayers. Sending you much love. Mary
I'm so, so sorry. I too lost my dad during all of this ****, and I never dealt with it. When I stopped taking the med., things really smacked me in the face. Please try to get back on track and don't kick yourself for your relapse. I'm so sorry, I hope things are a little brighter in the weeks to come....
