Coping <strong>with</strong> Death<br />

Coping <strong>with</strong> death involves receiving and<br />

showing support.<br />

Most people respond to <strong>loss</strong> by mourning.<br />

• Mourning includes talking about the person,<br />

experiencing the pain of the <strong>loss</strong>, and searching<br />

for meaning.<br />

• It may be difficult for some people to move out of<br />

the mourning process. Dwelling on things that<br />

can’t be changed will only add to your hurt.<br />

• Instead, try to think about how the relationship<br />

was positive in your life.<br />
