Difficulty: Moderately Challenging
Step1
The issue of getting on with life after someone close to you has died is a very complex issue because you do not want to let go and sometimes you struggle to get life back on track or even struggle to find meaning in life itself. One good think you need to do is deal with it and not just forget about it. Find a way to celebrate their lives through you by doing something that they used to do to help the good of others. It may be continuing a garden that they used to have and give away the fruits, it might be serving homeless in a downtown shelter, or any other good deed they have done. What this does is allow a piece of them to be living within you and it doesn't feel as lonely as if they were totally gone from your life.
Step2
The next thing I suggest is to reminisce about the good times and bad and try to remember as much about them as you can. It's ok to laugh and cry during these times but you are dealing with the issue at hand as we must. This helps you recognize and pay respects to their lives and what they have done and accomplished and leaves you feeling a sense of closure on their life.
Step3
The third thing you must always remember is that they loved you and expect you to get on with your lives and be happy. If you care enough about someone, they probably have the same feelings in return and just want you to do whatever it takes to make your life happy. They definitely would not want you to loose certain aspects of your life because of their deaths. If your having real problems and think its too unbearable first see a psychiatrist or psychologist and they can sometimes help a bunch. I want to take time to say sorry to all of those who are reading this and hope you get to feeling better soon. The number one healer is time, even so you need to take the time to think about the fact of the death to properly heal.
