Learn to accept that the love one has moved over to a better place and keep to that thinking.

at the same time, remember that death is not being gone forever, it is a transition of life, a time to remember that there are more loved ones beside us whom have shared the same feeling for the deceased and that we should be taking care of them and encouraging them how to go on in life.

Life is not about the dead, it is about the living.

When My father died, I then realised on how much i have not done for him and that no matter how much paper monies and food that I may have offered is just a consolation on my part, I therefore decided to be nicer to those whom are still around with me and take more of their nonsense

My first question is: What is this death in the family? If it's a family pet, some time will be neccessary to think about things, and you might need someone to talk to to get you through it. If it's a person, it's going to take MORE time, and there is no such thing as the best way. Find a hobby or work somewhere; it's the only way you're going to get over it. But do NOT forget to grieve. Keep their memory to heart. Occupy your mind with things. Email. Video games. Music. Start a music band if need be. But stay focused and don't let it get you down, friend. Good luck, and my apologies for this death.

You must grieve for the loss in order to really overcome sadness. You must first stop denying that it happened, then stop having the thoughts that there was something more you should have or should not have done to prevent the death, stop being angry at yourself or at the deceased, push past the depression you probably feel by sharing your memories of the deceased with other friends and family members and finally you will come to accept the loss. There is no "fast way" to to that. Mourning takesTIME and it is an individual characteristic- more time for some and less for others. You have my sympathy and best wishes.

You have to just take things one day at a time. There is no best or fastest way to get over losing a loved one to death.

I believe that death isn't the end but another path of life.

I have death in my family but not the members who are very close to me. I cannot imagine how bad one feels after such a loss of a member. But I know that it will take time to cope with it and move on with life. There isn't the 'fastest' way to get over it. Know that your family member is with you and in a better place and peacefully. We all know that we cannot live forever.
Try to continue your daily life and sometimes cry because it gradualy heals you. Don't keep that sadness in you. Try not to pretend either while continueing with your life.
He/she lived and now it's time to let go and take the path everyone has to take.

I don't think that there is a fast way to "get over" death, you need to find a way to "deal" with it. You need to talk to someone, either another family member, a close friend, or your minister. My boyfriends brother past away in February and I think the thing that helped him the most is just getting to talk about him. I can usually tell if he's thinking about him more one day than another because he will just talk about things that the two of them did as kids. Just remembering that person and thinking of all the good times and the funny times with them. You definetely need a good ear to turn to. Don't keep things bottled up inside or else it will be like a boiling pot. Wish you well and sorry for your loss.

Hopefully you'll move forward from the sadness part and remember the parts that made you laugh and smile and angry and love towards the person. Just because you can't see the physical person anymore doesn't really diminish the presence and impact that they left behind. Don't try to do this fast, you didn't develop the appreciation you had for your loved one "fast", it took time to grow. Just find a different way to appreciate and honor that person that makes you feel good inside. Take your time.

This is tough I am only 36 and lost almost all of my family I had growing up. Even parents. I still moarn there lost but I think of one day seeing them again. Also, I got some of there things together and made a shadow box with there things to look at and remind me of them. One things for sure when you go to the cemetery there sure not there and that hurts so I try to stay away from there because it just brings back the sadness. I only go there to place flowers out of respect and on Christmas to light a candle in rememberanc. I started a disk on my computer of memories. Also do things in honor of them. Depending on how your loved one passed you may be able to contribute in there name. There is no fast way to get over them you do have to remember I assume that they would want you to go on living your life and remember the good times with them. Always keep your mind occupied in this healing time because alone time only finds you thinking more of your loved one. Surround yourself with friends take a trip just to refresh your self. Also a favorite poem of mine is helen steirner rice when I must leave you. Find other family members that remembers good things about this loved one and talk with them. They also say time heals but it doesn' t you just learn to live each day and keep them in your heart.

There is no best and certainly no fast way to get over the death of a family member. You need to take each day as it comes and grieve. If you try to submerge your feelings, you will feel awful. Cry, sream, shout, talk about it with someone who's willing to listen and give yourself time.
I am sorry for your loss.

Stay busy. Make yourself do the things you ordinarily would to. Hang out with friends, go to movies, go back to work if you have a job. Laugh, and cry, and work through your grief along the way.

It will get better, in time. You never forget, and you never stop missing the people you love who are gone, but life keeps happening around you, and to you. You may feel as though everything should stop, but it doesn't. It can't. Getting back into your normal routine may seem strange, because you feel very different inside, but it will help you to heal.
