Coping with death

**pressure** · January 17th '06

i hope this goes in here

how do you cope with death??

**NATAL!E** · January 17th '06

I'm graudally learning.

It's really not nice.

Crying my heart out. Talking to people.. My friends.. Boring them to insanity about how I feel, and my memories and how I don't think I can cope.

It's a tough thing to come to terms with really. But. I think I'm slowly getting better..

It really hits you hard when it's someone you love so much. Your life feels like it's never going to be the same again.

But everything is solved with time. I guess..

Different people deal with different things in different ways.
If it is someone really close to you that has died then it will be a harder blow on you then if some distant relative you had onyl seen a couple of times died.

Do whatever you feel will let you vent any stress or anger you feel, talking to people about it is usually the best way to get it all out and if you feel like you need to cry then do so.

crying is all im doin for more than one reason

its times like u need ur mates, family or partner around
i only see my maes when im at college and even i cnt cry coz il get sent home, my family are the other reason i cnt talk to them and my bf wnt even talk to me

One of me work mates has just been diagnosed wi cancer, lukemia.

He went into hospital the other week and is havin the chemotherapy stuff, where they pump shite into ya blood basically, makes hair fall out, go delusional an the lot.

He probably wont come out as they say he's got 10% chance of survival.

he's 21.

I hope he comes out ok even though theres a slim chance but, if not ya jus gotta keep goin, yer own life could end anytime, even before its really started, jus like his might do. I've had to cope with other family and friend deaths before but still theres nothin ya can do really. Just honor the life they had.

i know what u mean, my nan had cancer and she thinks she gettin it bk and my mum thinks shes got it, not very nice

I bottle it all up.

Ya nut the fuck up and get over it. Ain't no goddamn point crying about it. Ya take a day to a week and then get the fuck over it. There ain't no point in wasting something as valuable as life over a someone who is no longer alive

Forest speaks the truth.

Also fimily death is a thing all people face, and deal with it in different ways which is what this topic is about. However ya take it, in no way is it a good thing, so some people are going to take it hard, and its absoloutley understandable if they do.

when i feel like sh*t because someone i love has passed i usually think about all the other people in the world suffering...or with people with the same problem... if its a parent that has passed think of all the never got to see there parents as they may have passed before they were old enough to remember them. you just need to talk to someone you love and trust do something in memory of them. it can even help to buy a pet. take up another hobby...some things to take your mind off it and when you think about it just think about all the memories and good time...

my dad recently died of cancer and the worst thing was not him dying but watching him go through all the pain and treatment and everything for nothing because the hospital screwed everything up.
im coping ok i havnt broken down or nethin but my mum doesnt stop crying and keeps teling me that i dont care because im not in tears .but cos im not upset that doesnt make me a bad person does it??

I think talking to a loved on is the best thing get out all of ure emotions and then hopfully the horid fealings will go.
Do somthing to remember them? plant thier favorite flower and keep that alive just so that u can relate the deat to somthing and talk to it (it might seemm said but if u have no one it is a good thing to do)

**NATAL!E** · February 9th '06

I am very self-contained when it comes to some things. I could talk pretty openly to my friends, but not really to any of my family.

Keeping things to myself made it easier in a way, because I could cry in my own company and not feel stupid infront of other people.

But I guess that's just me. =].

i cope with death in a number of ways i either talk to my close friends and family, or i write all my feelings down in a diary or something

one of my friend dat i knew for 6 years died a few months ago when he was just 12, at first you cry your eyes out, i still do sometimes now but only occasionly, it gets better as time goes on, you'll never forget them, but remember they'll always be wit u and everyone dat loved n liked them.
