How to cope with death.

since this IS maiotaku, i STRONGLY recommend watching the anime " Your Lie In April " it will probably break your heart and eat your soul, but if you're lucky, and you learn the message from the manga/anime, you'll be better off later because of it i think that's how it will be for me

Well look at the bright side he lived a very long life, and he had such a loving son like your self who cared for him. He seemed to have lived a happy life. So he would want u to be smiling and enjoying life more, watch some anime and cheer up.ur father will always live on inside ur heart.

That's really sad, and I'm sorry for your loss. I don't think that there is really a text book way on how to cope. Anything that comes out from the pain just needs to flow naturally, and hopefully the wound will become smaller with time. I don't think the pain ever really goes away, it just gets numbed with time. You'll always have the good memories to keep, and they'll both hurt and heal equally. That hurt is just something, that from my experience, is another way to remember that loved one by. Stay healthy, and hold on, friend.

My grandmother passed away a few years ago and she was the first person who I truly loved that died. It had a great impact on me. Like said before it does leave a hole that cannot be filled. Over time you just get used to the hole being there. Don't think of it as a bad or negative thing. Know that to have loved someone so much gives you so much pain is truly a precious thing in life. Let it be a reminder of what you have to do or need to do in life that would make that person proud.

There is no right or wrong way to cope with death. Though we say there are. From my point of view, when someone dies they just lost a lot of weight and are much harder to talk to. They are never truly gone as long as we feel and remember them. I have had plenty of people die that I care about. However I do not cry when they are gone, but if they are suffering when alive. I kinda giggle and smile to myself when I am reminded of someone who died because it is a good memory. In other words I focus on who they were not on the fact they are gone. Like whenever I see 3 bottles of 2 liter soda at the store I remember someone I knew who passed who date 3 bottles of 2 liter soda they got from the store each day. Another person use to drink ice coffee so much, that once I saw a sale on their favorite ice coffee I was about to buy it for them then I realized they were dead. I smiled and thought "well, I can't give it to them. At least it was a nice thought. He most likely has all the ice coffee he could want though" Focus on the good not the bad, at least that is what works for me

Question: i feel like an @#$hole for pointing this out, but ... your father had you when he was 70?? can't imagine how old your mom must have been, crazy, i'm sure he had an awesome life My Answer: Don't worry I get this a lot. So yes he was in his late 60s So he was 91-24 = 67. My mother is currently 58 right now. So 58-24 = 34. That's how old when they were when they had me. My dad had a first wife but she died. He kept on telling me how he had dozens of girlfriends. (Well they the Baby Boomer era was definitely the bang bang)

sorry for everyone's loss s my own personal experience the first year is always the hardest year I lost my granddad over 8 years ago and I still struggle to deal with it but the way I deal with it I just imagine he is on a cruise and never coming back but I cherish every single memory I have with him their was never a bad memory when ever I visit my gran I miss the smell of smoke by his old chair its not the same :( I would do anything just have one more day with him he was a great man always made people laugh
