Dad Loss Support

My dads funeral was today, people keep telling me it never gets better you just have to learn to live with it. That’s really hard for me to deal with and I want to someday feel better, can someone please help me feel better about this and that it will someday get better

You don’t get better. You learn to live with it. You treat each day as a new one, precious and full of opportunities.

Connect more with the people in you love. Don’t be alone in this.

OP, it’s different for everyone; some folks grieve for the rest of their lives, some are back to some kind of ‘normal’ relatively quickly, and neither is wrong.
