Daddy died

So when I was little my dad died in a car crash. I wasn’t old enough to remember him. And my boyfriend broke up with me and he knows a lot of my secrects. Well I know he won’t go around saying anything about my problems. Which I’ve had a lot of lately. I’ve been taking lots of Tylenol to keep my stress down and I’m tired of putting up with other peoples crap. I think the whole me not having a dad is just now taking effect on me like it did my brother and I want help so how should I tell my mom.

Answer #1

just come out and tell her, she will understand. its hard not having a dad and because your young, your very curious about what he’s like and everything.

Answer #2

My dad died when me and my twin were like 3. I know how it is. Depending on how yall broke up, I don’t think he would go around telling people your stuff. He shouldnt do it anyway to respect your privacy and all that. Really sit your mom down and talk. It is better now to get help than wait and you build up more and more stress and all that. Also…Do not take Tylenol everyday. It can and will eventually cause stomach and liver problems. It is not pretty. My sister took a bunch of them once and she threw up for days so its best not to take them just to make you feel better cause they don’t work that way. talk to someone chickie.

Answer #3

You should most defiantly tell your mom. She might be able to help you somehow. And if you trust your ex boyfriend, don’t worry about him telling your secrets, just remember next time to be more cautious who you tell your secrets to. You might want to tell them to someone you really trust and you know you won’t ever lose contact with, maybe a really close family member. But yes, tell your mom and losing your dad at any age is very hard and it affects your life but don’t let that effect your life so much. Somethings just happen and sometimes we have to move on and let it go. I’m not saying that you should forget about your dad, just don’t let it effect your life so much. Sometimes we have to learn to succeed with out our love ones. Hope I help =]

Answer #4

Unfortunately, there is nothing anyone can do to bring your dad back. Wish we could. Remember though there are many children out their that do not have dad’s but you are lucky to have your mom. If people keep bothering you about not having your dad, turn around and ignore them. Believe me some kids prefer not to have their fathers around especially if they live in a violent home. Talk to your mom, their is counseling available. Also I don’t recommend you take to much tylenol sounds like you are really young and you do not want to get addicted to something that is unnecessary. Again you have your mother and that is all that counts! Good Luck to you!!

Answer #5

I lost my dad too when I was very young, and I understand what you’re going through.

You feel lost, abandoned, and things just don’t seem worthwhile. Tell your mother that you’re feeling down and you don’t think you’ve been able to deal with your father’s death. Ask her to bring you to a counselor for therapy. it’s very important that you get some help with this - I suffered until I was in my late 20’s because I never accepted my dad’s death…you don’t want to go through all that.
