I am really sad about a reasent loss. How can i get over it???

Answer 1

Well, I don't know what kind of loss you have suffered, but there is a general grieving process that can apply to most things.

You will feel a course of emotions:
* Denial
* Anger
* Bargaining (I promise I'll be a better person if...)
* Depression
* Acceptance

I recently lost my best friend (she committed suicide). I have noticed that, for me, these emotions come and go in no particular order. There really hasn't been any sure way for me to "speed up the process," but I have found counseling very helpful. When you are in a state of grief, it is important to have support and someone to talk to. Otherwise, you may get stuck in the depression stage and never get to feeling better. I know that counseling is not appealing to everyone, but if you are willing and able, I do recommend it.

Answer 2

Dealing with takes time sometimes more time than we would like it to....one way to not get stuck in it is to feel it sometimes we all need a good cry...and and another good cry...and another good cry....it takes time the pain of the loss may never go away but there will come a time when you'll think about it and it won't hurt so bad.....but don't be surprised when one day you'll be walking along feeling pretty good about things and boom there it is again from out of no where it'll happen all you have to do is feel the sadness for now it will pass it's when you hold it in that you become depressed take care of your self eat right exercise and get enough sleep.......and be sure that you tell someone if it begins to effect you eating or sleeping habits. take care good luck

Answer 3

There is no quick and easy answer for this one. All I can say is that it will hurt just a little less each day. Stay close to the ones you love as you all need each other now more than ever. It is normal and even necessary to mourn in your own way. It's all part of the healing process. All I can say is be greatful for the times together and the memories you created. Those will stay with you a lifetime. I hope this was some help and encouragement.

Answer 4

I had a similar situation regarding my grandfather I was close to. I was very sad and decided that I should focus on all the great thing about him instead. The memories of him brought me such joy! Try to remember everything great about the person you lost and I hope with each memory a smile appears upon your face.

Answer 5

Sorry for your loss. Are you sure you want to get over it? Sometimes a loss can be a learning experience. Ask yourself what you need to learn from this experience and how it can help make you a better person.

Answer 6

You don't say what kind of "loss"? Death? End of a relationship?

You just have to give it time and go through the grieving process. If the loss is interfering with your life (you can't get out of bed, can't eat, can't work, etc) you need to get grief counseling.
