How do you COPE with the death of a LOVED one?

100% is to realize they are better off and in a better place than here.

Sorry so short but it will make sense in the end

It hurts at first; missing them every second. Then you miss them every minute and so on. It might sound horrible to say, but eventually you get used to them just not being there.
time doesn't heal all wounds...but after a while you will find yourself smiling at something & that's when things start to get better.
My mom died at 35 yrs. old...i was 14 (i am now 52.) wasn't easy, but like others have said already, we are in a shell, our soul is made up of energy. energy can't be destroyed; just transformed (released.) i look forward to seeing her again...if it helps...we are never ready or mature enough to lose a loved one...but you are! trust in the lord and talk! talk talk talk! you will heal; it will get easier!
i hope this helps!

I don’t know how I’d feel if I was t secure in Jesus Christ’s love. All believers know where they are going. It’s still uneasy not knowing exactly how it all will happen, but there’s no doubt where we go.

I pray that those that died had faith, most I know did. Makes it easier knowing you will see them shortly.

Praying in ny personal relationship with my saviour Elohim, daily.

and it tskes many moths to come through the grieving process

1)By knowing that they are in a better place

2)By knowing that whomever was in your life and passes will be with you in your heart, for eternity if you desire.

3)Heaven and hell are states of consciousness, not places. When we die, 99.99% of us go to a place that commiserates with where we are on our spiritual journey, which is neither heaven or hell.

4)We do get a life review after we pass away, and soon thereafter make plans with our spiritual teachers for our next learning experience, whether it be on the other side or re-embodiment onto a planet.

5)Know that we are all spiritual beings first, taking a journey in these temporary meat suits to learn the ways of the Christ Mind. It's not an easy life on this very dense planet, but it gives us a unique understanding that even many angels wouldn't understand because they have never incarnated on a physical planet. Being here gives us the best chance to learn our lessons.

6)Reincarnation is true and real. Nobody is ever lost entirely, unless they choose that path of their own free will.

Hope this helps!

Lost my mother a year ago. Contentious relationship throughout life but at the end I could see what was happening and fought tooth and nail to help her at the end when others were conspiring for her death.

Ultimately lost the battle but felt little if any grief because I had done what was right.

I will say this...if they need your help, give it. When the end comes for them you will be guilt, and thus, grieving free.

Guilt is for losers and those who are slaves to their ego

This.

I lost my mom last September and I know she's in Heaven. I posted about being a "Christian" on another thread and got flamed big time. It's pretty scary how much people hate Christians. No problem though, just like dealing with death, we know that there is more to life after this life. Many people here in GLP land are missing this, therefore, it makes it even more difficult to cope.

OP, if you're religious, just keep in mind that your loved one(s) are in heaven, we're the ones left here to suffer. Be happy for them and for the knowledge that you do have an opportunity to join them.

I’m not coping well.

Covid-Vaccines are about to "School You" on how to deal with Death.

Depends on how emotional you are .. Carry on , life goes on you cant turn back time move forward.

And please stop urying the Dead and Embalmed in the Ground thye are not "Sleeping Peacefully" that is ridiculus and there is a high probability you all are torchering your "Loved Ones" Maybe there is still activity in the brain and they have not followed there soul yet and there stuck 10 feet down
locked in and overpriced pretty box...

The Death n Dying and funeral home industry is quite the racket your guarenteed business till the end of time feeding off of peoples emotions acting like they care so deeply for you ..there all millionaires ..

Donate Organs and to science burn the rest and stop taking billion acres of land and contminationg the groud water with everything from disease decayed flesh chemicals that are pumpes in body ...

Death Is always made to be Dark, Spooky, THe End , ... The fear of death is programmed into you from the moment your born you hear it...
What is the end is the new beginning ...OR just carrying on becasue your soul lives in another frequency of life you just meet your soul thats already having a life ...Or maybe your soul just jumps in the next baby born and that is where the saying "old Soul" comes from and the feeling you lived anther life ...
In the End Its just a bunch of massive villlages of humans caring learning exploring and first thing happens is you graduallly meet the family you had and never knew you had ..all those babies you aborted , some of you have a huuuuge family.....
Eventually y0u die again and again so get over it , its a fact of life and the probability of Infinity Living forever would be more "scary" than the idea it is the end ..darkeness nothingness..

Religion should be built around infinity living forever being free to live learn explore with no worries of persecution no wars started buy psycho dictators presidents oligarchs false prophets ....

And wealth MOney does not supress humanity moving on to another age ...there is no price put on humanities head...

It's gonna take Time .... "Ohio"

Thoughts and prayers for those of you who are recently bereaved

I work with kids who have lost a loved one here in the UK and have suffered my own personal losses too

Time helps but that's of no use to you when it's not long happened

Take care of yourself in the way they would want you to

God bless

In my experience, one day at a time.

It's really hard, slap in the face, wake up call to our mortality. Once someone's gone off this planet, THEY ARE GONE FOREVER NEVER TO BE SEEN AGAIN, maybe in some sort of afterlife, we'll all find out eventually. Not a great world..

Hate loss.

When I get a chance to talk with management, that’ll be my only complaint.

Was talking recently w/ someone about the expected death spikes to come and how does one cope w/ such massive loss.

My reply was that due to my Eastern leanings, I believe folks do make their soul contracts when they decided to come back to teach others and conversely learn from others.

Everyone's made their choices. Even if vast majority of folks don't remember.

Time.

Lots of time.

Meditate on them often.

Distractions.

Pretty sure I read this one here:
Don't cry that it's over, smile that it happened.

I'll be there soon, but not today, Lord willing.

Losing a loved one will always put a dent in your heart that can never be buffed out. Sometimes it feels like a bottomless pit, I think it’s the hardest part of our human experience. Find some of your favorite photos and put them around your house. Only time will allow you to live peacefully with the dent.

If you really want to cope, then you first have to recognize that the departed are ashamed of you wasting time over spilt milk. They want you back in the game as soon as possible. They don’t want your pity or suffering or despair. They want you to take advantage of the time you have left, throw away the tears and laugh loudly.

Grief takes time ....no easy and quick fix , it is the price of love .
For me I called on God to help me with the loss of a child and He was faithful .
Time does soften the grief for sure but we never stop loving and missing them .
Hang in there , it will get better .

Hmmm....allow yourself a good ugly cry or 10 and then try not to think about them. Remove any reminders that might make you think about them - out of sight, out of mind... It's been a year now since my mom died and I can now think about her without tearing up so time may not heal, but it does smooth the rough edges.

I found this Walt Whitman poem in my mother’s purse after she died. I found many things like this in her files. She lived a very long life and seen many eras come and go. She had many stories to tell. Those stories that elders tell and others listen.

But with this poem, I came to realize that I never knew my own mother.

How do you even function? Why aren't you in a mental hospital somewhere? This is one of the mot fucked up things I have read on GLP, and THAT is saying something.

I don't want to ever meet someone like you.







.

You accept the suffering and embrace it. Problem is negation and trying to evade the situation. Feeling like a victim / that everything bad happens to you doesnt helps either.

The more attached you were to that dead person, the hardest it will be.

One foot in front of the other. Minute by minute, day by day.

The pain lessens over time. It never really leaves.

I have buried two husbands. Years ago my handle here was Twicedwidowed.

None of us are. Losing someone special rips a piece of your soul away.

I attended Griefshare. In the end, the little group I attended didn't let me talk as much as I wanted. I wanted to TALK about my loved one and tell everyone about my wonderful mom. I wanted to talk about my pain. You couldn't really do all of that at Griefshare. Still - it's a program that IS useful to a lot of people ... and one good thing...I made a new best friend when I was there who helped me deal with the grief.

Look up a Griefshare near you. You will learn a lot.

I'm really upset that my mom shunned me for not getting jabbed. She's in her 80s. I love my mom - so I'm angry and hurt that she ghosted me. Yet, I pray that she will have a change of heart. It's going to be hard on me when she passes -it won't end on good terms, I'll never have closure.
