The world is a difficult place to be right now. With so much turmoil, uncertainty and fear it’s difficult to see a light at the end of this incredibly dark tunnel. And if you’ve also recently suffered the loss of a loved one, then you may be utterly overwhelmed and wondering where to turn to next.
Having been dealt this emotional blow means asking yourself all kinds of questions. If life will ever be the same. Or how you’ll manage to work through the grief you’re currently experiencing. It’s important to remember that grief and loss is handled differently by everyone, and no two journeys are the same.
However, everyone who is working through the stages of grief and coming to terms with a loss should always strive to look after themselves and take care of their physical, mental and spiritual wellbeing. Read on for 6 ways you can help yourself when you’re grieving.
Visit a psychic
Grieving families and individuals have consulted psychic mediums for centuries as a way to find closure after a loss. If the death was sudden and unexpected, you may not have had a chance to have a real goodbye, perhaps you have questions you were never able to ask, or you just want to feel connected to them one last time. Whatever your needs might be, a good psychic medium will be able to help you. Check out this site for more information.
Know that all your feelings are valid
Anger, sorrow, longing, irritability – grief isn’t just about crying at a graveside, it’s all kinds of emotions. Don’t allow yourself to hold them in because you’re worried they’re not normal feelings. Express your feelings as much as possible.
Don’t hide from your grief
Suddenly deciding to work extra shifts and never sitting still won’t help you through your grieving process. The more you run and hide from your feelings of loss and grief, the harder you’ll crash when you finally become overwhelmed by them. Accepting this loss means you’re already on the journey to acceptance and healing.
Find a distraction
Finding a distraction from your grief isn’t the same as hiding from it. We all need something that will help lift our mood and make us feel good about ourselves, especially in those moments when you come up for air from your heartache.
Know that there is no time limit
Your brothers’ life seems to have gone back to normal and your other family members are simply getting on with things as usual…so, why can’t you? It’s easy to think that grief has a time limit and within a few months you’ll be back to your old self, however, it’s not the case. Never feel pressured to wrap up the grieving process and move on. Grief has no time limit; it could take months or even years, however, remember that it won’t last forever.
Finally, reach out
Friends, family members, colleagues even therapists or counsel groups… There are plenty of people who are more than happy to support you in your time of need. So don’t shut yourself away, reach out for help and support.
