When my dad died this fall. I couldn't except that he was gone. I convinced myself maybe he really just couldn't take my mom's nagging any more and ran away with his secretary. And who could blame him. Well I came to my senses soon after.

faked? you mean like...they somehow pretended that their death occured?
well....no. not directly anyway. I mean, none of the people that i deeply care for have died...so I wouldn't really know how i would react.
but from an unexperienced point of view...which i guess, is the best "advice" for someone who is trying to get over a death, I don't think i would, straight out.
i mean, yes, some people, and maybe myself, would hope that it's all a dream, or hope that it didn't really happen, but that'd just be hoping...and with the reality it's no good. so in that way, i'm indirectly trying to convince myself that they enver really died, though my mind knows it's truly over....
I think if someone died i wouldn't try and make it a mirage or "scam," but the sheer reality and truth would just shatter any hope i might have, and i'd just break down and shatter into endless pieces....and eventually get it back together with a missing shard.
though honestly, i wouldn't take my own advice, since it's myself saying this, but if you are having a trouble, just find that place in your mind that expands like a beach, with teh sun dipping into the waves. Then put the memory of the loved one into that place, and let the the memory set sail towards the sun, so that you still have the memory within your mind, yet it's free and and you're able to let go.

The only person I know who has done that... is me. And it wasn't my idea, either. It was the only way I could get out of a really unbelievably bad situation, so I just 'allowed' the people who knew me to think I had passed away. Other people were the ones who actually made it happen (or made it appear to have happened). I am glad I'm still here, but I'll never be able to be myself again, though, or try to contact any of them, even though many of my relatives are older and sickly or dying, and I would like nothing better than to go home and see them all once more. That is why I am "Still Trapped" -- the reason behind my ID.

No, but I have dropped off the face of the earth, or faded away from some. Most accounts I have had at places like that still exist. I just tend to step back when there's too much drama. xx

No, when they die in our family they tend to go down for good. What you are saying sounds kind of childish. I think it is best to accept death whenever it occurs regardless of the means.

No. This is an extremely unhealthy way to deal with grief. If you or someone you know is doing this, you or they should see a therapist.

No.
I have been there for most of the deaths.
I can't lie to myself about what I had to witness.

Not as such, however, I often worried that they did, because I really never wanted to see them again.

Yes because it is easier to accept that rather than accept that they died. :-(
