Ways to Cope...
I hate to break the news but it can take up to 10 years to realize this person is not coming back. Even though you think you have seen them in the market or know they are going to be around the next corner in the mall. They are not and it stinks!
Therapy is the best start to the grieving process. If you don't want to get stuck taking "pills", seek out a therapist who cannot prescribe medication. Be up front let them know you just need to talk.
"Group" therapy would also be very beneficial as you have other people with something in common with you and they might understand a little more. A lot of Groups are located at local churches and hospitals. Check out their web-sites or stop by their Information Center to get assistance.
Friends and Spouses are great outlets too. But you cannot burden them with all your pain as it can get tiresome. "For better or worse" does not mean they can always take the worse.
Lastly, Crying is Okay... it's a part of the Grieving Process.
