Replies RubberTrees Posted at 6:16 pm on Jan. 8, 2009 It's okay.  Just try to remember all the good times you've had with your father.   Getting over a death, whether it's a friend or a family member's, it's a very tough thing to go through.  Just try not to stress yourself out too much about him being gone.  Also, remember that crying isn't a sign of weakness, but a sign of how much you love and remember you father.  With time, you'll eventually learn how to cope with the pain.  Try hanging out with friends, or just drawing, listening to music, etc.  It might take a while get back into your normal routine, or to set up a new one, but you'll get there eventually.  Don't stay inside all day, getting out every once in a while might help/refresh you.   As for school, all I can say is try to do better and not get suspended as much.  If you're having trouble in school, try getting someone to tutor you (like a friend, or a cousin, etc), or go after school for extra help. If you feel the need to talk, you can always PM me. GeneCosta Posted at 9:55 pm on Jan. 6, 2009 As to the OP: it's normal. People cope with pain differently. RAGEMAN Posted at 9:20 pm on Jan. 6, 2009 Talk to your counselor, you may atleast have the stress of school relieved. The only thing worth getting upset over here is your father's death. zenfusion1992 Posted at 9:18 pm on Jan. 6, 2009 That really sucks, I feel sorry for you handsfree Posted at 9:17 pm on Jan. 6, 2009 do not fear to seek for help, it is not your fault to be in such pain due to your loss, and taking out your emotions will surely help you overcome it all.

Try to pray it out. joker678 Posted at 9:14 pm on Jan. 6, 2009 im so sorry!      keep fighting though. Vintorez Posted at 9:14 pm on Jan. 6, 2009 go to your counselor, you might be shown some leeway in school and you can talk about things sub800 Posted at 9:14 pm on Jan. 6, 2009 i wouldn't blame you for being pissed... just try to hang in there and make the right decisions angel84 Posted at 9:13 pm on Jan. 6, 2009 no its normal i go though more than that LucidAssassin Posted at 9:13 pm on Jan. 6, 2009 id say its pretty normal considering how much youre going through All 12 previous replies displayed.
