When someone dies, does the pain ever really go away

I feel pain doesn't remain sharp but it always remains in our heart.As the time passes we get used to it.We accept that the person is no more.But it pains when it is hard to accept.

Time is a good healer,with passing time we get busy,yes with passing time pain goes away,and we forget pain to,but when we remember it hurts and for few moment we become sad,and then again we get indulge in our daily work and again forget,this is life

I think, its not that we found ourselves used to have that way. It's a matter of our thinking that they may have gone and we were hurt... but as a part of life we must think it as life situations through which we need to move on to another phase. Just think that they're in good hands and place. I know the hurt we felt but think also of situations you'll have to face later on.

'you wouldn't know the worth of the eyes when you have it'.goes the saying. The dear ones were once the apple of our eyes..only when we lose them forever would we recognize how much we have lost in their non-existence.

The pain is never really gone, it is still there, but because we all live our life and move on, it won't be as painful, but we still cry. A friend of mine passed away nearly 10 years ago, and to this day I've never gotten over it, and last year around Thanksgiving, a member of my family was...I hate to say it, she was murdered by an ex boyfriend. Those 2 losses I just cannot and never will get over. The only way to not think or dwell on it is to just do what you do in your daily life. It's hard sometimes but as long as you remember the good things about those people things tend to ease a little.

You are right, grief never really goes away but it becomes less intense over time, or we learn to cope with it.

I just lost my daddy 3 years ago in July and my mama last Sept so the hurt and pain is still so freash. I honestly feel it will never go away that the sharp pangs of grief and missing them will come every time I think of them. I know we may become accustomed to them and get used to having the pains. I really dont' know.

No, it has never gone away for me. It just gets bearable and bearable because it becomes a part of us. I think losing a child is much more painful than losing a parent, though. It isn't supposed to be that way!

Hi Sherry, I certainly hate to be cliche, but I do believe eventually time heals all wounds. I do not think the pain ever truly goes away, because we will never forget our loved ones. However, we grow to accept it and learn to move on with our daily lives. This does not disrespect those we have lost, in truth it honours them...it is what they would have wanted. cheers,
