Answer 1

yea photos adn thinking of memories btutime is a gr8 healer belief it or not day by day u get thru it adn u hav eto know the time u had with that person or place was for a reason.. ther eis no justification to loss of a person so close to u no matter the stupid sayings people try to say oh if its ur time god takes ya thats not true they say it to make oneself get thru things.. thru loss fo people jobs relationships time heals. we are to learn from all experiences and share the wisdom they gave us and go thru it - everything is fro knowledge. to make us stronger wiser in some form.. to share that with others.. u have been blessed tohave good memories and time with something so special..that never goes away u keep that alive in ur mind and heart. thru ur works and deeds of things u learned. the smiles pop up of of no where sometimes and people wonder whats up with her as ur bonding back to that time or energy of that person.. u connect always.. to keep it going it is nto 100%gone.denial.. well u just know it is here.. and it is done.. and u have knowledge of the lesson or time and it was for a reason. you just have to know u will be ok day by day and count each day what u appreciated today and why and just be around people to talk too. it helps

Answer 2

In confronting grief, you should be optimistic and use the "detachment method". Detachment method is feeling and leaving the emotion, ignoring it in the process. You say to yourself, "okay, this is what grieving feels like, I have felt it for ages, and now I'm leaving it, I'll be moving on...".

- Getting out of denial is not that easy, I admit, specially if the incident happened very unexpectedly. The best way is to give yourself enough time to recover. After you did so, learn how to accept things as reality. Always remember that everything that happens in our life happens for a reason, and God has better plans for us. I hope I helped you in my small way. God Bless!

Excellent question.
I personnally am going thru both having lost my wife alittle over a year ago. I never for one minute ever realized how terrible grief could be. I thought I had fallen out of love with my wife through the years and often wondered what it would be like to be single again but broke down and cried like a baby when she passed away. I am not a very religious person but now feel pretty much at rest with the termoil I went thru because I turned to prayer for help and received it. Self thoughts using prayers were my biggest assistance. I got sick and tired of people telling me how sorry they were, I needed help in mind and you don't get that from words from others. Time seems to be the essence for healing and working things out in your mind, or at least it was for me. With denial, that too was worked out in my mind. The biggest point was that I had lost my wife and yet had the feeling of wanting another companion but was denying myself of that until our wedding vows came to mind. The words "until death do us part" relieved me of my denial feelings and I once again felt comfortable. After looking around at the possiblities of replacing a life long companion of almost 48 years of marrage has placed another burden on me though. How and where does a 71 year old man find a woman around the same age who doesn't look like Bessy the cow?

Answer 4

Grief is a natural process that we need to go through.
It is not to be confronted.
Surrender to it fully.
Have faith that by going right into the blackness, you will emerge from the other side renewed.
Don't be afraid of the tears, the pain.
Don't allow others to rescue you.
Find someone who will support you all the way through.

Answer 5

Face the facts, To get of denial you have to face the fact that what your doings is wrong in others acknowledge your wrong doing. To confront grief you have the face facts and move on. What doesn't kill us makes us stronger.

CONFRONTING GRIEF IS A PROCESS.
THINK ABOUT WHAT HAPPENED AND WHY.
START PUTTING THE PUZZLE INTO PLACE.
APPOLOGISE FOR WRONG DOINGS, IF IT
DOESN'T AGGRIVATE THE SITUATION.

NOT TO REPEAT.
