It's been a week now since my dad died.

I'm very sorry about your loss. There's some good ideas here already (ie the go for a drive or get a pet and even the prayer at the risk of getting flamed myself...). I'm sure the rest of your family is hurting as well, so if you're comfortable you might talk to them and come up with new things to do together.

In addition, you might take up a new hobby or two (on a side note I wound up learning poker after the death of my sister....) to fill up the time.

Most important, it's normal to be sad, but you should take comfort in that your dad loved you and doesn't want you to stay sad.

Take care....
