How Should You Cope With Missing A Loved One?

Whenever you’re missing someone, either because they’ve passed on or you haven’t seen them in a long while, you might find it difficult to function at times. That’s because you’ll be so overwhelmed with grief – an emotion strong enough that it can numb you and make you feel removed from day-to-day life.

It’s also a very natural reaction in response to losing someone important to you, like your mother. 

Fortunately, there are some ways you can cope with grief and missing a loved one. Here are some of them:

• Express your feelings. As much as possible, don’t bottle your emotions. Write a letter to your loved one, or record a voice message meant especially for them.  
• Join a support group. Spending time with people who are going through a similar experience will help you feel less alone.
• Try not to dwell on negative emotions. If you start getting overwhelmed by these feelings, you may consider reaching out to a counselor to help you sort them out.
