How do I go about dealing with the death of a loved one.?!


Question: I constantly find myself crying and thinking about it.


Answers: I constantly find myself crying and thinking about it.

Everyone deals with death & grieving differently. Forget about people who tell you you should be over a certain phase of your grieving. It's normal to think about the person & cry.

Try to set up a social support system for yourself. Go out sometimes, talk about memories of the person; look at pictures.
The more you talk about it the less you'll be holding in.

Try to do some deep breathing: Inhale thru your nose; exhale thru your mouth; rest. Each for a count of 3. Do for 5 min at a time.
Try to distract yourself. Have your friends do things with you...you don't have to be smiley & cheerful. Listen to music you can relate to now.
Take time for yourself.
Remember to eat & drink healthily.

You might want to find a bereavement group in your area or talk to a counselor to help you grieve...so you know you have someone to talk to who's on your side.

I'm sorry for your loss.

The best advice somone ever gave me was that coping and morning over a loved one has no time limit !!! , just let your self cry of you need too !!!!

you let your emotions out. its ok to cry. its good to talk to people. friends or family. its good to have your loved one's around you when you're struggling. just don't hold it all in or it will only get worse. if you feel like you need someone to talk to i would be willing. my screename on aim is TheBTPYoda.

its ok 2 cry, if u hold it in, it will get worse. talk to a friend or family member. i know how u feel. some one i extremly loved died. and i break into tears several times a day, even at the store or when im in my car driving home! i find myself thinkin about it, i loose concentration on everything and i think about her and one time i almost crashed. i talked with my friends and family and i felt better. cuz i let it all out. i still miss her and i still cry. but, i dont feel depressed. i feel alot better that i let it out. well im here 4 ya no matter what.~ good luck. God bless you. I will pray 4 u.

well. ...
if you have to cry, then cry. theres nothing wrong with that, it will pass with time. you can try to distract yourself a bit, llisten to music or something, so it may help you calm down. i also suggest taking a nap. if youre really crying a lot.
over time , you will still think about that person, but hopefully you will understand that they are dead.
sometimes, time kills the pain..

You are grieving. In time you will calm down more. Talk to the person (I use their picture), and let them know what you would have told him/her if they were here. Talk to people. If you don't have that available, go to a grief support group.
