Some events in life can be painful, like your partner's death. You might think that your pain is too deep for you to deal with and cannot be cured. We here remind you that you will be happy again. Your pain will slowly decrease and you will be able to return to your normal life again. Here are some tips on overcoming your grief and loss:

Appreciate your memories

What remains after your partner's death is a memory. Instead of storing it yourself, you can share your memories with the people around you. Memories are an eternal part of what you and your partner have in your life, so respect this memory. Focusing on beautiful memories will help you overcome your loss. This is a good way to begin your healing process.

You may find comfort by respecting your partner's life. You can plant trees if your partner loves nature, plays music or listens to music that your partner likes, or makes a memory book or book containing pictures that describe your life together. Surround yourself with positive memories by placing pictures around the house.

Know your physical and emotional boundaries

Feelings of loss and sadness can cause fatigue. This can affect your ability to think clearly and make important decisions. In addition, you may feel lethargic as a result of too much pain, crying and rarely eating. In order for you to recover properly, you need to take care of yourself. This means you have to rest a lot, eat a balanced diet and reduce your activities as much as possible.

Heal with humor

A study shows that people who can smile when they explain their relationship with their partner six months after death will be happier and healthier than those who only express sadness, fear and anger. In fact, thinking about happy memories can help you recover from grief. Even though it's difficult to do so, try to focus on good memories and along with positive emotions about your relationship so that you can protect your soul and help you find peace of mind. This does not mean that you do not feel sad or do not love your partner, this indicates that you can accept reality and overcome your grief better.

Look for a support community

If you need sympathy, don't hesitate to ask for support from friends and relatives who will give you the understanding you need. If there is a support community in your area, you can join.

You also need to avoid critical people or those who try to prevent you from feeling grieving like telling you that "when you heal all wounds" or "You will get better than him" or "You just need to smile often." People who encourage you to be yourself and acknowledge your feelings, whether happy or sad, are the people you need right now. You have the right to express your sadness and you must express your sadness.

Feelings of grief are not an event but a process. At first, it is difficult for you to cure grief so you have to be patient. You can appreciate your memories with your partner, but always remind yourself that you must continue to live life even though the people you love have left this life.
