The death of a loved one is a great blow to the living relative. A few days after the death of a loved one, you will feel that your loved one has been gone for a long time. This feeling can be due to several reasons:
1.Emotional distance.
When a loved one passes away, we can feel extreme sadness and loss, which can lead to an emotional distance between us and the deceased. Even if a few days have passed, our emotional response may not have adapted to the change and therefore feels like the deceased has been gone for a long time.
2.Physiological responses.
After the death of a loved one, our body will experience a series of physiological reactions, such as insomnia, exhaustion, etc. These reactions may make us feel that time is passing slowly, creating the feeling that the deceased has been gone for a long time.
3.Concentration of attention.
During the funeral, we may need to take a break from some daily activities such as work, school, socializing, etc. Focusing our attention on one thing may make us feel that time is passing slowly, creating the feeling that the deceased has been gone for a long time.
4.Social influence.
After the death of a loved one, we may receive attention and condolences from many people, and this social impact may make us feel like time is passing slowly.
At the same time, it may take us some time to respond to the care and support of others, which may also make us feel like the deceased has been gone for a long time.
In conclusion, this feeling can be caused by a variety of factors. At this time, we need to give ourselves ample time to adjust to the fact that a loved one has passed away and seek appropriate support and help to ease the grief and loss.
