How to grieve?

Answer 1

I too would like to know! I just went to the doctor and was put on antidepressants, I just can't take it anymore! My mom died in may and I too feel as part of me died. I just can't imagine life without my mom? She was my best friend, my confidant,my co-pilot, my everything! I try to remember all of the good times and the fact that I was with her when she died, I have no regrets. We had such a wonderful relationship! My mom was so much a part of my life and my kids lives, everything always included "mom" like vacations, holidays , all school functions, doctors apts, etc. I try to go on with everyday life yet it seems so blank! I cry at the drop of a hat. I don't know how to grieve, I don't know what is "normal"? I cry and cry and the thought of the upcoming holidays without my mom is really tearing me up. I just think of my kids and I go on....hopefully these new pills will work for me and I can again be the happy person I used to be, I pray at night before I sleep and ask for the pain in my heart to go away. I wish I had the answer you are seeking....I guess it's different for everyone and there is no right or one way to grieve. I just hope it is easier for you than it has been for me!If you find something that works well please pass it on!

People grieve differently. Crying is a good way to get it out of your system. You could pretend and write the person a letter and keep it in your drawer.

I have lost two grandmother's this year and the best thing we did is have get together at one of the family members home and reminiese about them. It brings out all kinds of memories about that person.

Everyone grieves in their own way. There is no right or wrong way to grieve.
Never let anyone tell you otherwise.

Answer 9

The best way to accept someones death in my opinion is to acknowledge the fact that they will always remain in your heart. In that sense they are never really dead,they live on in your love and rememberance of them. In the time just after a death its good to let out out your sadness,its an act of respect that shows how much you cared or how highly you thought of that person.

Answer 10

Sometimes just finding a quite place and journaling or listening to some good solid music for awhile. And if you just feel like crying that's always good too.
