My beloved pet best frien died on the 3rd of January-My family says I haven't been right since.I consider him my 1st born cause I didn't want children,2 years later my son became my surprise.My dog was more of a child to me than a pet and I think I even loved him more than anyone or anything-Im lost without him-he needed me as much as I needed him-now that hes gone.....Im crushed,alone,heartbroken and can't function to do daily tasks-Please help me to figure out how to accept this-I know Im in denial and I dont know how to get past it

Dear Guest,

I'm sorry for your loss.

You're grieving. You experienced a loss and are in emotional pain. It takes a while to work through it. Our pets depend on us for everything. Think of the good times you had together. Some period of grieving is normal.

It's important for you to get out though. Life moves on so stick to your routine. Even if you don't feel like it get up and out. Talking to someone can also help. You could also find a counselor.

Hang in there.

I know how much it hurts when your pet who was your friend for years passes away. And how inhuman someone must be not to feel grief after that... even your post reminded me on my Gray (he was a white cat wit gray spots around eyes - that's why the name). I know its a cliche, but it's proven to me to be the truth - time heals. You have to go through the grieving process, like medic-dan said, but each new day will bring some small improvement. You will never forget him, tiny things will still remind you of him, but the memories wont be so sad as they are now - they will become memories you cherish.
I'm sorry for your loss and wish you the best... It will get better, believe me.

Thank you-Im glad there are people who feel the same as I do-no one in my family seems to understand the bond I had with him-get over it,stay strong,hang in there Im so sick of hearing that!! No one gets that I wanna scream n cry and tell evry1 how unfair this is.I kno it was the best thing for him and hes in a better place but it still doesnt take away the hurt the emptiness or the heartache.I kno this sounds crazy but I feel lost witout my Teeterboy-I kno time heals and it will get easier,Im just not ready to let go,I am in denial and I kno I must face the fact that he is gone and not coming back-but I havent accepted that fact yet-I miss him,now I kno how he felt when I would leave the house-Im still waiting for him to come back...like he did for me.I think Im going to go see somebody to help me deal with this....I cant do it alone-its consuming me and I cant keep my head above the water anymore,Thank you for your kind words-time heals all wounds-I just need to figure out how to go on.....witout him-thats the hard part,,,,Thank you again
