I lost my dad too, and it can be very difficult to deal with this. With time, this will get better, your Dad will be proud of you and he will be wanting you to deal with this and he knows you can, you can pm me anytime :) xx
Theres not much I can say except that it WILL be ok.
it doesn't get easier in the sense that most people waffle about that time is a healer and all that. But it is like scar tissue slowly growing over the wound. It is never the same, and may always twinge or ache at times but it is bearable and better than the raw pain that it sounds like you are still feeling.
One important thing is don't resist when the healing begins, some people cling onto the pain but there is no shame in allowing yourself to heal and get on with your life.

My surrogate dad lost his dad in 06, he's making it, but he still suffers a great deal, he cries, he misses him so much, he still hurts...
the pain I'm afraid will never stop, it will get easier though, with time, patience.
Just remember he's not really gone, he's still with you,in spirit, in your heart, memories, and soul... and he's around you, holding your hand, watching you grow, watching you be strong, watching you and loving you with all his heart just like he did always.
7 months is in the very early stages of grief, you are bound to be feeling very emotional. I lost my Mum 8 years ago and it does get easier to cope with. I'm here if you need to talk. Take care.
I put it down on paper and then the ghost does not ache so much.
