@aliali- Right now you are in deep mourning and should have whatever kind of day pleases you. If you are aching to get some exercise but feel drained and I I suspect you do, take a little walk outside. I'm not sure what you are referring to when you ignoring recent events.
One of the first books written about loss was written by a woman named Elizabeth Kubla Ross. Her book has been thought of as the bible, if you will. She discusses in details the 7 stages of loss. I have learned that these are true but they don't always come in a certain order. https://smile.amazon.com/s?k=elizabeth+kubler+ross+death+the+final+stage+of+growth&crid=1SOV6T82N0RYS&sprefix=kubler+ross+stages+of+death%2Caps%2C202&ref=nb_sb_ss_i_1_27
Have you checked out Connect's loss group? I'm not sure if I sent it to you

I mean by ignoring the recent events hmm avoid thinking in the matter of my father’s death. As a depressed, not thinking in some negative ideas has given me infinite energy and self esteem! I will go thru the book immediately!

@aliali I highly recommend Elizabeth Kubler Ross's book. It gives an insight into various stages. I agree with Merry that it does not happen in compartmentalized stages. I have lost my father, mother, dear friends and the feelings and responses are very similar. Loss of energy is not unusual. Grief groups are often offered through hospitals, hospitals, and other agencies. It helps to talk, at least In my case.
