It can be fatal at times! Let the emotions, grief, and pain be drained out of the mind and body! It is necessary. Holding it back within you may lead to severe health and mental issues. Cry, shout and scream to relieve yourself from the distress and pain that you feel from the news of death of someone close to you! It may take long – couple of days, week, or even months to lessen your pain of the loss, but this is required. Get out of the state of shock and disbelieve that it has happened.
