Moving On After a Loss
Many of your well-meaning friends and family will tell you it’s time to “move on” after your loss. Unfortunately listening to that type of advice may prevent you from grieving properly and talking openly about your loss. Don’t worry about what others think, grieving is a very personal process and you are not grieving the wrong way. There is no right or wrong way to grieve, it just takes time to heal.
It is very important that you don’t just “drop out of life” while you are grieving. If you aren’t ready to “move on” then maybe consider the idea of just “keeping on” with life for now. Sometimes you just need to remind yourself that you are doing the very best you can and that’s okay. Don’t try to run away from you emotions, embrace them but don’t exclude yourself from doing things you like to do such as being with friends, exercising, hobby’s, reading or other activities.
Going forward with your life doesn’t mean forgetting about the loved one you lost. It doesn’t mean you don’t miss them just because you enjoy life again. And how long it takes you to finish grieving is in no way tied to how much you loved your pet. With time and the love and support from your family and friends, you will find ways to cope even with the deepest loss.
