Grief & loss: questions answered

Answered 21 February 2024 at 5:45 pm PKT

My father passed away six months ago and I still cannot accept it. Is that normal?

It is absolutely normal to still feel this way, and to struggle with accepting your father's passing six months later. Grief is a deeply personal journey, and it doesn't follow a set timeline or a predictable path. Losing a father, especially, leaves a profound void, and the heart takes its own time to even begin to understand such a significant change. Please know that what you are experiencing is a very human and understandable
