<font color="green"> I just took the depression test and scored a 55. I was looking at the bar graph under my saved scores and realized that it is the end of August and I am crashing yet again. Thirty years ago on August 26th my dad died. I miss him so much even yet. although the pain is not so raw it is still pain. Anniversary :( Anniversary :( Anniversary :( Anniversary :( Anniversary :( Anniversary :( Anniversary :( Anniversary :( Anniversary :( Anniversary :( I am older now than he was, I know he probably would be coming to the end of his life if the cancer hadn't taken him, but we lost so many things so much time we could have had. It hurts. Yet I know I shall go to him and see him again. He will be whole and the dad I remember. But for today, I am sad.</font> Anniversary :(

((((dalila)))))) Aug. 1 was 8 years since my dad has been gone. I miss him every single day.

Anniversaries just suck. Anniversary :( I hope you will be able to find a way to do something nice for yourself and to remember the happy times with your dad. The pain never does go away, you're right, but maybe if you can think of things he used to do that made you laugh, through your tears and pain you can find a way to be grateful for the time you did have.

I know it hurts bad. I wish I could give you a hug for real. Anniversary :( Please be gentle with yourself and let me know if you need to talk.

Love, Candy

(((DALILA))). I am sorry for your loss and the pain that you are feeling at this time. Take care of yourself and stay safe. It is not always easy to remember the good things that happened when your father was alive because the pain is overwhelming at this time. Loss is such a signifigant part of life and seems unfair at times, although you still have a lot of fond memories left of your father to remember in the future when you are feeling less overwhelmed than you are at this time. Please Pm anytime and chat is available as well so you dont have to be alone at this time. The hotline number is 1-800-273-TALK, if you would like to talk to someone in person. Soidhonia
