No easy answer: The only way through emotional pain is to be present with it. We try to push it away but that does not work. The pain will pass if you just be aware of it and let it be.

Tools: Family, psychotherapy, religion, time, friends, babies, pets, faith, sports, meds, groups, meditation, trips, time. I have seen all of the above work in different cases. Your psychiatrist or psychotherapist may have more ideas.

Grieving is OK: The normal grieving process can last up to two years. Know that this is normal. Ensure that your physical and spiritual health are not being ignored as you regain your mental health and well being over time. Also, find something you like to do to relax....You can never go wrong there.

Very painful: I'm sorry to hear of your many losses. Grief work for one death is challenging enough; added deaths have come before you equilibrate from the first. The tools dr. Satulovsky mentioned are good ones. May the support of family, friends, spiritual community, pets, grief support groups, music, meditation, etc help you through this difficult passage. A therapist could help a lot too. Peace to you.
