I have a great friend that has died of corona virus. I am shattered because I could not see her in her last moments or go to her funeral. All we had was facetime. She was only 35 with severe asthma. I am reeling. This happened two weeks ago and my sadness and depression is overwhelming. How can I get over this?
It felt real. I was pleased with the advice. I love this hit!

Question
I have never experienced depression until now. Yes. I work remotely and my concentration is way off. It is affecting my production at work. I'm not enthused about anything. I am eating less. My husband tries to comfort me and it feels good in the moment but goes away when I am alone.

It seems like you're confused as what to expect and react as I understand Depression is tough to deal with. We can try to find a way to temporarily suppress it but ultimately, we need to find the cause and treat

I cry, crying actually helps since it relieves the pain youhave to go through. After you cry, your body tends to be exhausted and you can just sleep without thinking However, the best way to cope with death and depression in general is stay outdoor, be closed tothe nature

This is true and I have noticed that crying over this is something I have not done much. I do workout intensely 4 times a week but that has fallen off too. I do workout inside with a home gym. Maybe running outside wouls be more beneficial and help me feel closer spiritually towards her. I thi nk I'm still shocked a little.
