Today, while mourning my friend's recent passing, my dad told me to shut the fuck up because "worse things are going on in the world". FML

Thanksgiving
Questions about your love life, a burnt turkey and the cousin who knows everything: Thanksgiving, a contact sport.
Same thing different taste
Compassion
Today, while crying at my grandma's funeral, I was told to "man up". FML
Thanks, I feel better!
Today, my dad told me, in the form of a soliloquy, to have a better attitude about death and dying. I have terminal cancer. FML
Internet words IRL
Today, I decided to open up to my friends about losing my dad last year. To my horror, all they could do was laugh at and mock me, all because I said that he "unalived" himself. FML
Arseholes
Today, it was dad’s funeral and I intended to speak but I was crying so much I couldn’t finish and mom had to help me back to my seat. Unfortunately, most of our family are arseholes and I could hear someone saying, “Disgraceful, shaming his dad like that.” It was the worst day of my entire life. FML
Support system
Today, I tried to tell my dad that I was really struggling with my mental health and didn't think I could stay alive much longer. He laughed. This comes after telling my "best friend" last week and having to wait three days for a reply. FML
Today, my dad stood by and nodded in agreement as my sister told me that my clinical depression is "getting REALLY old." FML
Angry man
Today, I learned that now that my mom is dead, and my dad doesn't need my emotional support during her illness anymore, he's going to go back to insulting me every time he talks to me. FML
Empathy lives
Today, my mom walked in on me crying in my room and yelled at me for being a "weak little crybaby." I’d just found out my best friend died in a car accident. When I told my mom that, she said, "Does it look like I fucking care?" FML
Gatekeeping grief
Today, after my cousin recently died, my aunt basically told me that I shouldn't be sad, because we fought. FML
Miscommunication
Today, my dad heard that the guy who bullied me at school died recently of a drug overdose. For some reason, he thinks we were actually best friends, and thinks I'm doing drugs too. I'm now not allowed out of the house except to go to school. He won't listen to a word I say. FML

Tell him to shut the **** up, and ask him what he would do if it were one of his friends. I know someone who literally held her blood-covered friend as he died from a suicide attempt, and if she'd just been about six minutes earlier… just tell your dad to shut the **** up!

I'm sorry to say this but it appears that your dad has no feelings and no heart :/

Some people don't know how to deal with death OP. Personally, death is one of my phobias so at times I've said insensitive things or tried to make light of the situation because it's hard for me to say that I'm uncomfortable talking about the subject at hand. Maybe your dad is experiencing something similar and just doesn't know what to do or say.
