How to cope with missing a friend

Human beings are social creatures and missing our friends can really weigh on us.

However, regardless of the reason you might be missing someone, there are ways you can help relieve the sadness and cope with the pain of loss.

First off, it is important to know that you need to take care of yourself.

Sit with your feelings and acknowledge them, but don’t let yourself get to the point where you can not eat or sleep.

You need to be well rested, properly fed, and kind to yourself to keep going. 

Remember that even though you are missing your friend dearly, there are other people around you for support.

Lean on them a little. Missing someone means you are feeling lonely.

While the other people in your life will not replace the friend you lost, you can still experience joy and love from others.

Try doing the things you and your friends used to do together!

Clearly, those experiences brought you happiness, and you might feel more connected to your friend if you still engage in those activities.

It will also be good for your own psyche to immerse yourself in things you enjoy.

Life is full of loss for a variety of reasons.

Most of the time, unless it is in the case of death, missing your friend is not a permanent issue.

If someone is moving away, you can still plan visits, talk on the phone, and interact with each other online.

It will not be the same, but your friendship will evolve and the intense feeling of loneliness will ebb.
