What are some things to do to help dealing with the death of a mother?

Answer 1

I'm sorry for your loss.
Celebrate her life and time by doing things in her name, whether it is for you personally or for someone else.
Plant flowers, grow a garden, go for walks to ease your pain and think of her good memories with you, donate to a needy place in her name.
Remember that she is always with you, she loves you and hugs you in the way she can.
It is ok to see counseling if you feel your grief is overwhelming and it helps to talk about the loss.

Answer 2

I can really relate to your question as I lost my mother 3 days ago. I think a lot depends on the circumstances of her passing. For my mother it was a blessing and she was spared a lot of suffering. What helps me is talking to family and friends about her and going back to work. My thoughts are with you - you're not alone!!

Answer 3

There are support groups available (grief support) Try to focus on the good times you had with her not on the fact she is no longer with you. Death is now a celebration of life and your Mom would want you to celebrate what you had with her.

Answer 4

you need to keep busy. but there is no easy way to deal with it . you will have periods where your down or crying, grieving. it takes time. time is a healer, as in time one will start to put their life back togeather. i know i lost my mom and it took me nearly a year to come to grips with it. now im ok, and can smile when i think of her.i am sorry for your loss.

Answer 5

Honor her memory if you wish, by doing charitable work and volunteering for causes she believed in.


Also, by honoring her, you'll recall the love you had for her, rather than emphasize the loss,. You will therefore have her in your heart and remember the good.
