I am now going to a men's church group for fellowship every other Wednesday I go to a church group every Friday and I go to my parents almost every day now and my daughter and I are starting grief share and will be in that for 13 weeks.
My daughter has been a major supporter in my life even when she is really depressed she still looks out for me and we chat ever night.

Be gentle with yourself. Grieving can be a long process.

I lost my sister 5 years ago and I still miss her. But the grief has become more manageable. I can look at her picture and think of her without crying now but it still hurts.

It might take time and it's good that you're talking with your daughter and church group.
