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

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, I told a co-worker to "lighten up, and stop wearing black all the time, it makes you look depressed." I didn't know his father had died the week before. FML
Today, while crying at my grandma's funeral, I was told to "man up". FML
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
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
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
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
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
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
Today, after my cousin recently died, my aunt basically told me that I shouldn't be sad, because we fought. FML

My condolences. I know how you fell; my Mum said the same thing when my boyfriend died. Hope you can find someone to talk to about how you're feeling.

Oh god, your dad is horrible. I'm so sorry for your loss. Grieve as long as you need. Maybe even go talk to someone about how you feel and also how to deal with family members who don't relate to your struggles.

I hate it when people try to compete over what is more tragic. "There's worse things going on....." No, just no. It's all tragic.

I can't stand people who say things like that. It's like saying you can't be happy because other people in the world are happier than you. He was being insensitive. OP, I'm sorry for your loss.
