The time it takes differs from person to person.5.Myth: Moving on means forgetting your loss. Reality: Moving on means you have accepted your loss, but it is not the same as forgetting. You can move on and keep the memory of someone or something you lost as an important part of you. In fact, as we go through life, these memories can become more and more integral to defining who you are.C.Dealing with the process: While grieving a loss is an inevitable part of life, there are ways to help deal with the pain, come to terms with your grief, and eventually find a way to pick up the pieces and move on.1. Accept your pain. 2. Accept that grief can trigger many different and unexpected emotions. 3. Understand that your grieving process will be unique to you. 4. Seek face-to-face support from people who care about you. 5. Support yourself emotionally by taking care of yourself physically. 6. Know the difference between grief and depression.D.The stages.

Acceptance:I am at peace with what happened.
