My dad passed away over the summer and for school Im really nervous about seeing everyone because one thing I cant stand is pity. How am I suppust to talk to all my friends and teachers without getting in a crying fit! How am i suppost to write the what I did this summer essay! My main question is how am i suppost to tell my friends they shouldnt be nice to me just cause my dad died. If there just being nice to make me feel better, there not really my friends.

Answer 1

At least they aren't your enemies. It's up to you how you handle it. But you can just say thanks but I don't care to think about right now hope you understand.

Answer 2

People will no doubt express their sympathy.  Just say " Thanks Im dealing with it , and I appreciate your concern"  Then change the subject like you ARE dealing with it and have it under control.  

Then you can break down when you get home, if needed. Just say thanks and move on.. so you dont feel pitied.   Make it clear you dont want to elaborate.

It is  necessary for you to do it this way, to maintain  Thiss is what you must do to stay in control of your emotions.

Answer 3

Be honest and tell them that you are very sad and that you would feel uncomfortable talking a lot about it and your friends should understand and be more supportive. Your teachers will understand 100% so just relax and try not to think negatively and think positive.
