Help For Grief?


Anyone have any good ideas how to deal with grief other then the obvious of staying wasted 24/7?
I lost my grandmother to Cancer this past Saturday.
We were so close, she was like a mother to me.
I am so lost and alone.
I can't eat, either can't sleep or all I want to do is sleep. I cry all the time, get angry, want to punch a hole in the wall.
Oh yeah and ontop of that, I have a severe anxiety disorder, so that doesn't make things any easier.
I am prone to depression.

I'm so sorry to hear about your loss.
I certainly hope your not trying to stay wasted 24/7!

Take heart in knowing you now have a wonderful guardian angel watching over you!

Grief is a natural process and what your going through is normal. It will ease day by day. Hopefully you have someone close that you can spend time with. Simply talking about her with someone who also knew her will help ease the pain.

Go ahead and hit the wall. But don't break your hand.

It's totally natural, you just need to cry... and if it helps, I have an anxiety disorder too. Don't do anything crazy, okay? If you need any more help e-mail me. ~Hope I helped

Staying wasted wouldnt be dealing with it! Talk to people about it.. rememeber her forgetting wont help. I lost my dad to cancer in 98 and i still cry thinking about it. you never get over it your just learn to deal with it and live your life

I think you need some anti depressants from your Doctor for the meantime. work hard with yourself so you don't have to have them for long. It's always so so hard when one looses a loved one. but think of your grandmother and all the wonderful times you had together, Think how lucky you where to have had her . She would be very sad if she thought you couldn't cope with out her. She would want more than anything that you grow into a strong healthy loving person.

If you don't let yourself feel this and grieve it will just be worse later. I've lost a sister to suicide, a step-father to cancer, and a best friend to murder. It hurts and it will hurt for a long time. but if you let yourself feel the pain and work through it you will come to a point where you miss her less and remember her with the good times more than the pain of losing her. It will never stop hurting, but it won't always hurt this bad. I know, I've been there.
