hey u can talk to us all here 🙂 it gets like that sometimes.. u feel as if there is nobody in the world who understands you and its hard... my partner has cancer, my own parents pester me about paying them board.. rarely let me take out time on my own to chill out.. my friends rarely call me coz they know i'l most likely decline an invitation.. its very sad about your father 😞 i wish there was more i could say to make u feel better but there's not.. only my advice to you would be give it time.. time heals all wounds... i went thru a very dark stage in my life and realized that there is life and hope out there.. let urself mourn the loss of your father, be upset do watever it is you can to let it all out, then slowely you wll see you will get better and better... 🙂 pm if u want to chat im here for you xoxo ...
