Welcome to mylot. I am sorry to hear of your loss. Having experienced loss of my own the only thing I can say is that healing comes with time. As much as you would like to just shut out everything sometimes and try to stop the hurt it does not work. The best I can say is that you may have to spend intimate moments thinking of those you lost and trying to make peace with it. What are some of the good things you can recall of their lives? Dwell on these. Speak to 'them' if you have to. Express how you feel about them not being with you. Involve other family members and close friends and have them share their true feelings with you. Eventually I believe you will become a great console to each other. Be very angry if you have to it is very natural. Just try to remain in touch with reality every step of the way. Do not put a time span on your healing process. Allow it to run its course. All the best.

it really hurts to loose someone close.feels like some void has opened up in our life.it very hard to heal it, but life must go on. i lost my granpa recently.it hurt but he was very ill with diabetes and i didnt feel too much depressed. i thought he was relieved from his sufferings.but its not always the case. sometimes we loose someone unexpectedly and it more than just hurts. i try to not to think about them as much as i can.it helps ease the pain.not that it always helps but i still think its the best way.also i try to be as much possible with my family and friends.

Hello Peeches, Dealing with a loss is very dificult, I have lost both my grandparents several years ago, and there is not a day goes by that I don't think about them. It's something you have with you for the rest of your life. The way I deal with it, is I think of the good times we shared, when I was a kid, I remember the advices they gave me, and what they taught me, it get's me through life. And god is the biggest help of all to get through your losses - Pray - and pray everday! You have a blessed easter hun, my prayers are with you!

I'm so sorry to hear about that, I think maybe you should go outside, changing environment will help you to adjust your mood.
