The death of a loved one is the hardest test. It is difficult to describe the intense emotional pain the grieving person experiences. The person feels hopelessness and internal protest against what happened.

Step 1
The loss of dear and beloved people is a powerful psychological blow, after which a person comes to his senses for a long time. There are no recipes that can erase the memories of the deceased in one day and heal the emotional experiences of his loved ones. No matter how psychologically stable and morally strong the person who buried his loved one is, those around him should not expect the impossible from him. Sorrow the next day will not turn into happiness and joy. It takes a long time during which the person must survive the trauma.
Step 2
This difficult period will be characterized by complete apathy and detachment to everything that happens, a person is immersed in his experiences and memories. A feeling of unreality of the events taking place around is created, appetite is lost, inhibition of reactions occurs, the physical health of the bereaved worsens.
Step 3
The danger of such psychological shocks is that long-term experiences of a person lead to mental disorders. On his own, he does not always manage to cope with experiences and emotions in connection with an irretrievable loss. Therefore, people experiencing grief of loss need psychological help and the appointment of special sedatives. Contacting a specialist in this case will help you get out of a depression.
Step 4
In some cases, a person independently determines the optimal way out of a depressive state associated with the death of a loved one. Some are helped by a change of scenery and vacation, while others, on the contrary, are saved by immersion in work and business. Support and understanding of loved ones is very important.
Step 5
People experiencing the death of a loved one also find solace in prayers for the deceased and faith in God. In this case, Orthodox Christianity recommends ordering in the Sorokoust Church for the repose of the soul of the deceased, a panikhida and handing over church notes. It is also believed that the reading of the Psalter for the departed by the loved ones of a deceased person, in particular the 17th kathisma, benefits the soul of the deceased. It is believed that death is the release of the eternal soul of a person from the physical body and its transition to the Kingdom of Heaven. Thus, the departure of a person from earthly life is the beginning of the path of his immortal soul to God.
Step 6
The realization that a person's life has a hidden divine meaning helps to accept the fact of loss. Each person has his own path on earth, his own tasks and goals. You need to find the mental strength in yourself to come to terms with what happened. Perhaps this period is a time for a reassessment of values, the development of spiritual qualities, a rethinking of the goals and objectives of a person.
Step 7
The death of a loved one teaches you to love and take care of loved ones, appreciate an unpredictable life, be bolder and happier, and enjoy every moment. Death as the end of the earthly path is inevitable for every person. It is important to accept what happened, return to normal life and keep the bright memory of the deceased person.
