Oh sweetheart, it's only natural to feel that way after a parent has passed away. And it totally sucks and it's just part of life - unfortunately.
I remember feeling like a safety net against the world had gone - because parents protect children (to some extent) against the bad things in the world.
Maybe write your feelings down, get it all out on paper, then think about why you are feeling that way. For me, I felt sad at the lost opportunities - not being able to call my father and just have a chat, or just ask him his advice on something, with my mother it was always recipe advice.
Sorry for providing my experience. It's not about me, it's about you, but sometimes hearing about another's experience can help - if it doesn't then just think of making jelly with me in your kitchen.
Don't be too hard on yourself honey. It's a hard time and you'll eventually adapt to your new life, just know that there are a lot of people out there who are on your cheer squad.
