I lost my young child to murder several years ago.
I have found many things helpful (not necessairly in order) --- loving support from friends and family, POMC (Parents of Murdered Children loss group), therapy, art therapy, somatic experiencing, massage, yoga, good self care, therapy, supporting others who are going through similar, talking on victim panels at the prision, advocating regarding local laws I thought might have saved my son, advocating on related issues, keeping my mind hopeful that "God had a plan", distracted myself with working on a graduate school degree.

Yes, came back to add more, but it looks like Anonymous got to it bf I did. I found those things helpful and I advocate for them in my social work practice.
