Same as before but feeling worse about it

My friends father has died, he was the kind of man who was everyones surrogate "Dad"..laid back, easy going, wise but down to earth. He was always particularly kind to me and my son (who has severe autism, no father of his own, and doesn't get that much fuss and attention from anyone but me)
My own dad died when I was a teenager so this has hit me hard. I so rarely have real feelings I am just at the moment going form numb to upset, and all my other upsets are getting bundled up into it.
I can't go to the funeral, I spent so much of my childhood and teens going to funerals. I dont show the "correct" emotion and fail to say anything supportive, and then I lose it and go back to drinking
I feel like crap.
Except now factor in not slept, screwed the whole day up because too wobbly to even manage to leave house (so my lab experiment is now ruined and cant repeat) trawling WP looking for humour to distract me and ruminating too much about death. Severely lacking friends right now.
