When you lose someone from your life, it’s natural to grieve that loss. Take as much time as you need to work through these feelings. Additionally, don’t try to make yourself feel a certain way because there’s no right or wrong way to grieve.  For instance, you might feel really mad if the person hurt your feelings or broke up with you. Similarly, you might feel really sad that someone you loved passed away or that you lost the future you thought you had with an ex. You might feel really overwhelmed by your emotions right now, and that’s okay. To help yourself feel better, express your emotions in a healthy way. This can help you start to feel better. Here are some ways you might deal with your grief:  Cry. Scream into your pillow. Write in a journal. Write a letter telling the person goodbye, then burn it. Draw or paint something. Take an exercise class. Venting is a great way to help yourself move on. Tell your friend what happened and how it made you feel. Then, explain that you’re trying to forget the person. Let them know if you want advice or not. You might say, “I’m not looking for advice, but I need to vent a little. A friend of mine stole from me, and I’m having trouble dealing with it. I’m really sad that she did this, and I feel mad at myself for trusting her. I’ve decided to stop being friends with her, but forgetting about her is hard.” You might feel really alone right now, but there are people who care about you. Ask the people closest to you to spend more time with you as you go through this loss. Invite them over to your home, join them for social outings, or call them on the phone. Spending time with others will help you feel better.  If you can’t see people in real life, try texting or video calls. You can also interact with people in online forums. While it’s important that you work through your feelings, sometimes you just need a break from the pain. Distract yourself from your pain with fun activities, funny movies, and hanging out with your friends. Immerse yourself in what you’re doing so that the thoughts of the person you’re forgetting fade to the background. For instance, go bowling, walk your dog, get coffee with a friend, read a book, watch a funny movie, go to an improv class, or paint mugs with a friend. so you’re meeting your physical and emotional needs. When you’re coping with a loss, remembering to take care of yourself is hard. At the same time, eating healthy meals, exercising, and being kind to yourself will help you feel better faster. Create a routine to make sure you’re meeting your needs.  For example, create a morning routine of brushing your teeth, showering, getting dressed, and eating greek yogurt. Your evening routine might be to eat a healthy dinner, indulge in a hobby, and get ready for bed. Do nice things for yourself like soaking in a bath, coloring in an adult coloring book, giving yourself a massage, or buying yourself a small present.

Summary:
Give yourself permission to grieve in your own way. Release your emotions in a way that feels natural to you. Talk about your feelings with someone you trust. Reach out to friends and family so you have support. Use distractions to help you cope with your pain. Practice self care
