Grief & Healing: When We Lose Someone We Love

Losing someone we love can be heartbreaking. The pain that follows is undeniable and cannot be avoided. Grieving a loss is a process that everyone goes through differently, and there is no one-size-fits-all solution.

What Is Grief?

Grief is an intense emotional response to losing something or someone who was important in our lives. It could be the loss of a partner, family member, friend, pet, job,’ Game of Thrones,’ or anything else that had significance in your life.

Grief is not limited to human beings only! Animals such as parrots also feel grief when they lose their partners or chicks

However,’Frustration’, ‘Regret’, ‘Anger’, ’Loneliness’, confusion and hopelessness are some other emotions associated with this helpless feeling.

Phases Of Eliminating And Regaining Oneself:

2) Anger
3) Bargaining
4) Depression
5) Acceptance

Most people think these stages occur sequentially but nope!! This callous companion (grief), doesn’t stick by any rules whatsoever.
People go through all phases irrespective if they happen simultaneously…at periods….or never at all!!

Pain Management Techniques

While dealing with sudden losses in life might seem ear shattering…and cruel(it actually always does)there are ways for coping up!

  • Talk: Find yourself (someone better…than) a supportive friend or family member and talk to them. Share your memories with the person you lost, it might help you cherish those precious moments.
  • Events: Hold an event in memory of the one you lost! It could be anything from lighting up candles together to running a charity drive. Whatever helps yall bond with some meaning
  • Remembering The Person In Daily Life: Cook a meal so dedicated to that individual, they would have enjoyed…listen to songs.. watch movies..Ride/ run/bike/walk/hopscoth parks–Anything!
    Talking about something as casual as getting stoned and meeting each other again in ‘heaven’— might just bring back memories we thought were more or less buried.

Dealing With Death Of A Family Member

Death of a loved one comes bearing lots of heartache .It’s disorienting all at once since it affects everything –the ambience creates gloominess—almost like, very much roughly akin to being thrown into darkness without any notice whatsoever!

However, there are many rituals performed by different cultures when it comes consoling yourselves:
– Ritually washing the body before interring
– Wearing black clothing sometimes signifies people mourning thr loss 
etc.

While these customs won’t cure pain overnight after losing someone close,it positively will provide closure which is most times what everyone needs anyway.

Closer Look At Euthanasia

Medical assistance in dying (MAID) otherwise known as euthanasia -Can we really stomach this idea? It’s been under hot debate for quite sometime now! (applause to whoever initiated it!).

However, it remains an extremely controversial subject and only a few countries have legalized this practice.
