Question

How do you get through times of devastation in your life? How do you get through it?

Answer 1

TIME....

nothing else you can do. and just KNOW you'll get through it..

look back to other hard times and see that you got through it then and will again.

turn to good friends, throw yourself into something, i.e. job, hobby etc...

good luck

Answer 2

One day at a time, its the only way. I know they say time heals, but its true. When my sis died I believed the pain would never end, but it did. Life goes on - it has to.

Answer 3

Take time to grieve, plenty of "me-time". Long drives to think, long baths to think, long walks.. to think. Think about everything. Cry often. Eat bad foods.

But then one day, you just have to pick yourself up again. Life doesn't stop because something terrible has happened. What doesn't kill us only makes us stronger. Pain is weakness leaving the body, and we need to carry on.

Answer 4

Every life has devastation, that is a guarantee, we are living in the easiest times in human history.  You focus on the bigger picture and life goes on.

Answer 5

it takes time. i'm going through something now that is killing me inside and all i know is that eventually things will work out how they are supposed to work out. it's hard, but life is never easy. if anyone tells you otherwise, they are either lying or haven't lived enough yet. the one thing i always try to turn to are family and friends. they are there to support you and help get through the tough times. just try to fill your life with fun things and good people and you will get through it, even if it does take time!
