April Lynn, my pops was my best friend in the world and died in a motorcycle accident when I was 10 months sober. No goodbyes just gone.
I definitely leaned into AA/NA/CA meetings, got a sponsor, did the steps and service.
No need to wreck myself and prolong the pain of losing my dad.
You can do it too.
I’m totally here for you. I’ll friend request you now.

Thank you everyone! I respect the honesty. Straight up. I have an appointment with my new counselor next week, and I started looking into and attended an online meeting(s). I’m going to call my local Red Project on Monday to see about getting a Recovery Coach/Sponsor.
My dad passed away this morning. So thank you. I’m so thankful for you all.

Call me! ASAP
I’m so sorry you are going through this transition of your Dads spirit. I fear the same thing. Know that this is only a transition for him, his spirit is just leaving his earthly body and going to a better place. He will be able to visit 
You may want to seek counseling for this, there is no shame in it. I go to therapy. 🫂
