How do you grieve? (1 Viewer)

[Nina]

Ive thought about this question a lot.
ofc there’s no right and wrong way. I’ve had a few loses in my life but I never seem to understand how to grieve or how I grieved for those loses.

Sometimes I feel like I want to be left alone to grieve but the times I’ve experienced loss, I was never given the opportunity to be alone and idk if I’d be fine if I actually was.

Do you have an understanding in how you have grieved if you lost someone important in your life?​

I find it best to be around other people so we can talk about the good times. If I feel like crying, though, I prefer to do it alone bc I legit ugly cry and it would annoy the crap out of other people. lol

Why do you ask? Did you recently suffer a loss?

I have to be alone. Its usually best if I'm alone for a few days completely. But sometimes time passes and I'm still not okay, I just try not to think about it

I’ve only lost one being in my life luckily (my cat) and I wouldn’t talk about it with anyone. My mom made a comment in the car about it and I just stayed silent, so I think she got that I didn’t want to talk about it. Tears for sure (in private/only around my dog, not people) but I generally tried to just not think about it (which I know is a bad move for many people, but for me it worked okay).

I need to be alone and I need to be in nature. A few minutes before sunset (when you see the sun sinking into the horizon) is a special moment to finally say goodbye. When I was younger, my grandma died. At evening time, I walked up a hill and watched the sunset. I imagined that the sunrays take my grandma's soul beyond the horizon, protect her from darkness and cold during the night, and bring her into a new life with the dawn of the next day. She would have loved this idea.

I’ve only ever lost somone I was close to once (my papa). I was devastated honestly and I remember constantly crying. I was hurting and I didn’t know how to hide it well so I was just always crying for weeks. Eventually reality set in and I just chose to not talk about it

Just to be left to my own devices
it takes weeks for me to deal with loss
I am not good with death and funerals

alone. I hate when ppl are around when when I grieve

ive lost people i loved and the best way for to grieve is just pretend it never happened.
