Do you cope with losses/deaths well? How do you cope? (Page 2)

Question

Ah…I know this question is out of the ordinary for me, but this one will be kinda a rant.  I usually keep my composure with deaths and bounce back fairly quick, but I really hate falling into a deep depression after losses. I try to cope by distracting myself and do things that keep my mind busy.  As some of you know, I am a caregiver for elderly and special needs clients. When working with elderly, you see clients slowly deteriorate. It hurts your soul because your main purpose is to help them live life a bit easier as they age.  I had a client I was close with who I formed a “great granddaughter-great grandmother” relationship with. We got along well and I saw her almost daily for long hours a day. I just got informed that she passed away, and I haven’t stopped crying. The last text message she sent to me was, “And I love you too great grand daughter.”  I just want to know, do you cope with losses/deaths well? And what are some ways that helped you cope with losses/deaths?  *Serious answers only would be appreciated...*

Deaths are traumatic, more so if it's someone you were close to. Even if it was someone you didn't particularly like.

I’ve been dozens of funerals. Been a pallbearer. Never cried. But I balled gobs of snot when I had to put down my childhood dog.

If I lost someone close to me I would take it like a man and move on, I'd be strong and move on with my life, men need to be strong during times like this, there's more to life than just mourning a person's death.
