Loss & Grief

Closure after your close ones death

We want explanations for everything that happened or happening in our lives. That is human nature. And when we don’t get any explanation for things, we feel anxious and find it difficult to accept. Hence, we don’t get a closure. 

Closure doesn't mean that you've completely forgotten about your loved one, but it does mean that you have returned to a new normal way of life.

Things that you can try to get a closure are –

• Give yourself time to grieve the loss

• Take full responsibility for the emotions you are feeling 

• Allow yourself to feel sad or cry

• Surround yourself and share your thoughts and feelings with people you know well and who loves and supports you.

• Don’t try to please anyone. Do what you feel like doing.

• Gather your strength and reprioritise your goals.

• Make and follow a simple routine for yourself where you eat and sleep on time and make sure to do one productive thing in a day.

• Take it slow and take one day at a time.

The place that our loved one holds in our heart can’t be replaced by anything or anyone, but we can make that our strength and look forward in our life.
