My father passed away two weeks ago. I think I'm doing ok but at the same time I just can't face people. I'm angry with how some of my closest friends acted about his illness.
The last 6 months of his life were really tough. He was very ill and we were brought in to many side rooms telling us the worst news and to brace ourselves only for him to get a second wind and give us more time.
During that time some of my closest friends never asked how he was and would seem surprised when I wasn't around to go out for drinks etc.. normal life seemed so far away during those months. I lived in the hospital with him going home to get broken sleep for fear of a dreaded call. They just didn't seem to want to know or care when I gave them an insight. I'm a private person and didn't harp on about him but he was always on my mind during that time.
Now he's gone I just can't seem to get myself to do normal socializing with people. I do go out with my kids and have fun days with them but just can't face other people. I don't want to talk to them about it and I don't want to listen to them either.
Will I ever be able to face people again?
