A Pandemic of Grief
Pain is not something new
Because of the coronavirus, many people are experiencing pain, but it has been with us for a long time
We can Face the pain
Plan to do activities that feel enjoyable.
Allow feelings to come and go without judgment.
If you want to, use the loss as an opportunity to learn something about yourself, grow a new skill/enhance existing skills, or attempt to create something new for yourself or others.
Take a break from distressing material (social media, news, etc.) or conversations (if able and if needed).
Find ways to honor your loss and/or your feelings about the loss.
Don’t compare your grief process to others’.
Get or make it a priority to maintain support.
With this seven reasons
we must let the feelings that appear to us at certain moments simply flow
we cannot demand or repress ourselves to feel something
we must not conform to a certain model of pain
We are all trained to see things in different ways
It is absurd to try to measure our pain process with that of others
Each person lives in a different social environment
Sometimes the use of electronic devices on a recurring basis instead of distracting us remind us daily of the events of the pandemic
We must avoid staying long in these gadgets
It is true that we must communicate with other people and keep up to date even much more in this pandemic
It is good to try to try new things or unusual things in this pandemic
It is proven that doing different things can bring peace of mind
The covid-19 has brought with it an imbalance in the schedules and in the lives of people
If you have lost a family member in these days and have not been able to carry out a funeral ritual, you can carry out this activity in unconventional ways, write a letter to that person and burn it, draw it, think it, ways in which you remember the memory of that loved one
It should simply be understood that the worst thing that can be done is to isolate ourselves, at this time it is best to take advantage of those around us
This is not something to plan, emotions should be allowed to flow through activities
