What would be a good way to cope with the loss of a loved one?!


Question: Try and spend time with your friends, let yourself cry and greive. People think talking about it helps, but not always, it tends to make me hurt more and makes me want to hit people for talking about it, dont bottle it up though, cry, yell, scream, hug people, whateva it takes. Hug people who also lost that person, you don't need words, and by hugging them you are comforting them while they comfort you, it helps two people. Time will make it more bearable but it will always hurt, the best thing to do is let yourself grieve, there is no easy way out of it and no short cuts.

*hug*
I am sorry.

The best way is to let yourself grieve. A lot of people bottle up everything...but it's important to talk about your feelings and memories.

Only time will heal this, and not always.

to talk to friends and family about it. also cry, cry and cry. also, try to occupy yourself with activities.

Just let yourself grieve and there is no set time for grief,Talk about your feelings. Realize other people are grieving for the person too.

Remember and talk about the good times you had with that loved one. I don't know the circumstanced, but if they had been suffering, just know they are no longer in pain. Always talk to friends and family and let the tears flow! It will take time. Good luck and I hope you feel better soon.

I think the best way to just cry it out. You can't keep grieving over someone. I feel that way with my grandma. She died over 15 years ago, and I still feel that I can't leave her go.

Share your feelings with someone who can relate and will allow you to just express your feelings. You need someone who will listen and comfort you but will also offer advice for you to move forward. If this doesn't help try a good cry by yourself - a pint of Ben and Jerry's is always there. If you still can not go through at least a few hours without being reminded of your loss i would recommend talking to a psychologist. Best of luck and I'm sorry for your loss.

talk to a person whom you believe, and express yourself ... take the black out ...

I don't know. I wish I did. It's been four years and I still cry.

well i wanted to be alone to figure out things about my son who passed on, it hurt so bad that i had to do it alone, what i did was bought the book by Betty Eadie , Embraced By the Light, and i cried alot. talked alot about him when arond people.. i did things i enjoyd such as baking. I went to his gravesite to talk to him (it comforts me) every week or more.. I did NOT do this as if it was easy . I did this because i HAD to. i realized there is only 2 roads to recovery of a loss of a close loved one, and that is Life, or Death of a broken heart. I chose Life. and i chose to think of him every day that i live in this world , and as if he is there to guide me through good and bad. I will say your question with the word COPE is realistic, most ask how to FORGET and go ON. the answer to that is simple, we DONT forget and we do GO ON. with the loved one in our minds and hearts daily. Good Luck to you. only one self can learn how THEY can COPE. the pain . everyone is different. as long as you take the road path to LIFE not the other road. it will take time. however long it takes you. it took me 4 years. to keep going forward. but i wont FORGET nor let him go . he is with my heart. even though a hole was left , he is still there dancing on it for me...

There are different stages of grieving that a person must go through,pain,anger,etc.then as a christian i look for God Kingdom to come to the earth as it is in the Heaven to correct the problem of death,The Bible refer to death as a sleep.Ecclesiastes *9;vs5-Revelations 21 vs3,4 also John 5vs2*9,28,29-These are scriptures of COMFORT,Please read them when you get a chance.Also remember to take one day at a time and even tho this does not sound right each year get a little better i hate the string of death,One day if will be done away with,but until then pray for help to handle the grieving process.Sorry for anyone Loss!

It doesn't seem to work to ignore your feelings. When you do, they come back at another time when it might not even make sense. You need to let yourself grieve to eventually feel okay to recover. It takes quite a while. Some people longer than others, perhaps it depends on how close you were to this person. Find people where it is safe to vent. If you don't have that, find a grief support group where you will also learn what are ways to cope and how to take care of yourself.
