Answer 4

God-I talk to him and pray when I need His help with coping with difficult situations. First and foremost that helps me out the most.

Confiding in someone you know and trust?-Finding someone you can talk to definitely helps you cope. I know its helped me out lots of times in my life, and is definitely second to God. You can talk to God and thats the best thing, but theres nothing like talking to someone thats human thats been apart of your life here in on earth too.

Keeping busy-usually pretty effective; depends on what kind of situation your coping with. be careful not to overwork though because you DO need time to cope, and putting it off by not dealing with it is not healthy.

Smiling and Laughing-probably the best medicine after you've talked to God and a friend, and tried to keep busy. Once your past those 3 stages that means you've accepted the fact of whats happened. Now you need to work on keeping the happiness flowing in your life. Focus on good memories about what your coping with. Whether its a person or a situation. Let the good times keep rolling. Remember them their all you have besides the people they've left behind, the pictures, home videos, and everything else. This one helps a lot too.

Hope this helps you understand what helps me cope. I've had plenty of experience so if you ever need to talk become one of my fans on here and contact me if you want. Everything will be ok. Have a great Valentines Day!
