Tell dad about everything going on. Don't stop telling him. He's the one who will help you get away from the bad stuff that's about to start, and keep it from getting worse. Things will still hurt, but not as much. He can help you through the confusion.
And he won't hate you for feelings you're already having. He'll help it make sense, help you find the words you keep looking for.
My friend, as a dad, this hit me right in the feels. I'm glad it sounds like you did get the help you needed, wish it had been sooner.
