Departure TimeDo death of who we love end of story or just start-Accept beloved death :-The death of a loved one may be devastating. Sarah's tragic apology describes some of the feelings that can arise from someone losing, and where to get help and support.-The death of a loved one affects people in different ways. There is no right or wrong way of feeling. You can feel several kinds of feelings at the same time, as if one feels fine one day, then wake up the second morning and have a feeling of sadness again. Strong emotions can also come unexpectedly. "It's like a wave and a beach." You can be standing in the water on your knees and feel that you can withstand the wave, then suddenly a strong wave will come and you will land. "--Experts generally mention the existence of 4 stages to bear grief over the death of loved ones:-Accept death of that person.-Experience the pain of sadness.-Adjust life without the presence of a dead person.-Reduce the emotional impact of sadness and put that emotional energy in something new (in other words, go ahead).- --Often one goes through all these stages, but it is not necessary to move easily from one to the other. One's grief can be confused and lost control, but the effect of these feelings diminishes over time. So one must give his feelings enough time to go away. Can feel:-Shock and numbness (this is usually the first reaction to death, people often remember their sense of amazement).-Sad grief, with a lot of tears.-Fatigue and tiredness.-Anger, of the dead person - for example - or of his illness, or even of God.-Guilt to say something or not to say, for example guilt because of anger, or inability to stop the death of his love.-All these emotions are perfectly natural. Negative feelings do not make one bad person. Many people feel guilty about their anger, but it is good to be angry and ask why that person died. Some people become forgetful and less able to concentrate. They can lose their things, like keys. This is because of the distraction of the mind as a result of tragedy and sorrow.-Dealing with cases of loss:-What is the feeling caused by grief?--The way you are affected depends on many things, including the nature of the loss, the education you received, your beliefs, your religion, your age, your relationships, your physical and mental health.--You can respond in several ways to a case of loss. "Sadness ultimately involves many basic emotions, including anxiety and disability, which often come first," explains clinical psychologist Linda Blair. "Anger is also common, including anger at the death of someone who is" left alone ". This is the natural part of the grieving process and you should not feel guilty about it. "There is something called distressing, which often comes later," Blair said.--These common feelings can help them look more moderate. It is very important to know that it will go away. Some people take longer than others to recover from these feelings, while others need the help of a therapist, therapist or GP, but you will overcome this loss and will eventually subside.-Dealing with emotions-"Grief always requires adjustment," says Blair. "Give yourself time to adjust and recover and be respectful for yourself and for your sorrows, you may feel desperate for a while, but be patient with yourself."-There is no immediate treatment. You may feel damaged every day for about a year to 18 months from the date of a major loss and after that time, you will be less likely to have this grief at the forefront of your mind.
