8 Ways to Cope With Guilt & Grief
There is no right or wrong way to grieve. People experience grief uniquely, and normalizing that guilt is often a component of grief is important. Self-reflection is a normal reaction to the death of a loved one, but these self-messages of “I should have done this differently” are not helpful. It is important to learn how to deal with grief healthily to begin the healing process. Fortunately, there are actions you can take to come to terms with your guilt.
1. Journaling
2. Prioritize Self-Care
Mental Self-Care Examples:
Practice mindfulness.
Take a break.
Play video games.
Listen to music.
Read a book.
Listen to a podcast.
Reflect on things you are grateful for.
3. Channel Your Guilt Into Something Positive
Apologizing.
Making amends.
Changing your behavior.
Accepting your faults and moving on.
