You world has been upside down, and you are acting out of character, you need to talk to you someone and pull yourself back before you damage your life. At least you can see the things you are doing are not right

SirenaBlusera agony auntI'm sorry about your dad... it sounds like you're grieving. This behavior is really destructive though, and it needs to stop because you could do something you might regret for the rest of your life.

I could not agree more with CaringGuy. I think you need someone to talk to.

Good luck.

I think so. Losing your Dad was probably a very bog shock, and perhaps rather than face everything head on and speak to someone or get help explaining how you feel, you're rebelling because it's out of character and for a while you're not acting like yourself, you're acting like someone else. The problem is that you're now becoming very unsafe and this could lead to danger. I don't think you're coping with your father's death as much as you think, so I would really suggest speaking to someone about it. You don't need to act this way to show you're upset.
