My Dad died too early thanks to cancer 
, a little over a month ago. I’m having a hard time with it, to the point where I think about self-harm
Hi, my dad died when I was 15, that’s a terrible lost, recently I also lost my mum (I´m on my 40s now). I can tell you the feeling of being alone is unbearable when you lost both of your parents. If you Mum is still there, help her, talk to her. She will also need you in this moments…

Hey there. I just wanted to say I’m so sorry for your loss. Cancer is the worst.
Do you have anyone you can talk to about what you are feeling and about how hard it has been? Grief counseling can also be so helpful if you do not feel like you can talk to anyone in your life. And you can always share more about yourself and how you are doing here on the wall. We’ll listen and help you if we can.
You are strong and you matter. Please stay safe
