I can't sleep. These past few days have been rough. My father passed away in February, but lately I've been really depressed over this. The past few days, I've been really grieving over his death. It's 6:30 in the morning here, and I haven't slept yet. I can't. I feel horrible. I miss him a lot. He wasn't perfect, but he was my dad. And more than that, he was my best friend. I just don't know how to handle this overwhelming grief I've been feeling lately...

I'm sorry to hear that. I lost my grand-father this Febuary as well, and I couldn't grieve for the longest time because it was so unexpected. It wasn't until I visited their summer home that I realised that he was actually not just missing but also dead. That was in July, so almost five months later. My point is, irregardless of how much you've grieved previously, it's normal for grief to strike you later than you first expected, and possibly harder than it did the first time around.
That being said, I'm sorry it's so hard on you. I couldn't imagine losing someone as close to me as my own dad, so your grief is definitely warranted. As for things you could do to deal with it, I'd suggest doing something similar to what you do to deal with other strong emotions. Personally, I write whenever I'm overwhelmed with emotions, whether that be a positive one or a negative one. Getting it out on paper helps shed some light on why I feel the way I do, and also what I can do to make it easier on myself. Drawing, playing some kind of music or any other creative outlet can also be really helpful, I've found.

It'll come and go.. but it'll get easier. I still think of my own father everyday somehow. It'll take time to get used to things that make you think of him. I sound like someone who knows everything but I honestly still can't believe my own father is gone. SO while I might not be the best person with this, I completely understand your pain. Just try and do things that make you happy. I know your dad wouldn't want to see you sad, despite how hard it is to stop feeling so horrible when you think about him. If that doesn't help you, crying always seemed to help me. Or talking to someone about it. I'm sorry you had to go through this.
