                                                       My Top Ten list on the Grieving Process

1.For most people they go through 7 steps of grieving that usually happen in this exact way

2.People usually go through denial and numbness with confusion, which people end up just going into isolation

3."After denial, numbness, and confusion, the reality of the death begins to sink in. Often, the first reaction to this is anger and frustration. We feel powerless against death and lash out against those who we think hold power, such as doctors, hospitals, and God."

4.When your angry you usually start blaming everyone for the death of this person. When this happens you can end up blaming people who weren't even involved with this and even yourself. But the bad thing is you are full of all this anger and pain so when you get mad you unleash this and start getting mad at little things

5.People try bargaining, they may not tell anyone but they will start promising themselves things. Some people try praying or hoping that they take them over someone that they don't want to die, or they say If I make it through this I'm going to go do something huge and start helping more people out that need it.

6.Guilt and Regret is something big that I am sure that everyone has felt when someone they loved die.They might start blaming themselves because they had a fight with this person or you were not nice to them all the time. As well as maybe you didn't even know the person but you heard greatly of them, but you never really got to know them but now you cannot do anything about it now. 

7.The most common part when someone dies it depression. I myself have even heard of so many people going through depression once someone they loved has died. A lot of people get bad depression and it is said to not be rushed or ignored, you cannot help how you feel. 

8. Then after a while you start acepting and realizing that they are gone. This is when most people would start feeling more like themselves and happy and going back to the way that they were before this person has died. Sometimes you feel sad and whatnot but so does everyone else and you get over it.

9.One big thing is you have to respect how everyone is acting to this death, weather if someone is really emotional or just does not show any emotion at all. Most of all with your family you should act nice and plesant because you guys are all dealing with a tough time.

10.Family is very important when you are dealing with a loss, they can help you so much and will always be there for you.Sometime you and your family will  be crying with each other and sometimes laughing it just matters you are all together. This is all normal behavior and you should be with your family frequently.
