I know there are some really good people on here so I thought I would ask for some advice. I lost someone very close to me about 16 months ago and I am struggling to come to peace with that loss. I know there are a few on here that have been in my shoes and I want to know what has helped you to deal with the loss. I have been using over the counter meds to deal with insomnia. I found that church really helped for a while but it seems to not be as much help as it was. Burying myself in work and hobbies has been helpful but also seems to be losing it's effects.
What are my options? Some things I have considered are counseling, prescription meds (trying to avoid this one), possibly working out. I would be interested to hear others opinions. Any books that might be helpful?
I have been avoiding some things that myself and this other person enjoyed doing together. Like hunting, fishing and camping. Is this not healthy? I realize that we all grieve and deal with things slightly different in most cases. I also find myself avoiding some social interactions with others.
I am not on here 24/7 as I work and have a family but I will be checking this thread daily. Thanks in advance for any suggestions.
