My all time favorite betta fish just died on Sunday, and I can't seem to get over him. I'll constantly find myself staring out the window, and thinking about him, or I just start to cry. I feel really depressed, and I want it to stop crying and feeling miserable. How can I do this?

I try and do something, but end up just stopping and crying. I feel like I'm helpless. I even have memory lapses. Its like I'm wandering in a fog, and I don't know what to do, where I am, what I've been doing for the last half hour, its horrible...

I am truly sorry for your loss. Unfortunately, time is the only thing that helps. Just smile when you think of him and be thankful for the time you had him. It will get better... ;o)

Get a new beta! I always feel better because I feel like I'm rescuing the fish from living out his life in a little tiny bowl in some store.

Watch a movie with such tragedy that you will start to say they have it much worse than I. Your world just got a little bent out of whack. You'll soon put it back into perspective after 1 or 2 good heartfelt drama movies.

Why don't you go to a petstore and rescue a poor betta in a cup? Give him a great, clean, warm home, focus on setting up the perfect tank for your new betta.
