A pet warms your soul by wagging its tail or purring when it meets you. But, as sad as it may be, everything has its own term. The loss of a pet is a strong psychological blow, which is difficult to survive, but possible.
Instructions
Step 1
Each new day begins with sad thoughts about your pet. Of course, it will take you some time to get your feelings and thoughts in order, but the sooner you do it, the better it will be for you and those around you. Do not dwell on the problem, everyday experiences will not bring a friend back, but will only drag you into a vicious circle of daily melancholy and mental return to the past. Try to abstract yourself and not think about what happened.
Step 2
Having calmed down, try to direct the released energy in the right direction. Take your free time with new hobbies. For example, if you had a dog and walked it at a certain time of the day, then start jogging or playing swimming or tennis at that time. Compensate for excess time with a variety of hobbies.
Step 3
Surround your loved ones with care. Direct all your affection to relatives, imbued with their problems. Don't forget about yourself too. You can go shopping. Of course, it will not replace your beloved animal, but it will distract you from sad thoughts for a while, and a relaxing massage with aromatic oils will help you keep your feelings and experiences in check.
Step 4
In European countries, in such cases, they practice conversations with a psychologist - this technique can also be adopted. If those around you do not understand you and do not share your grief, then make an appointment with a qualified specialist who will not only listen to you without interrupting, but will also give practical and valuable advice and help get rid of blues or depression.
Step 5
Never start a new animal until you realize that your feelings have subsided. It is important to realize that a new animal, albeit of the same breed, the same color as the previous one, is a new creature with its own character and habits, so do not try to shift the old habits and attitudes onto it.
