Consequences of losing loved ones
Losing a person is painful, but mourning a lover could be disastrous, most especially for future relationships.
A case of a Nigerian woman, Sokeye Esther Bukola, who lost her husband in 2019, leaving her to cater for two children buttresses this. Speaking with Nigerian Tribune, she said:
"I wish our companionship is forever, but the sudden hand of death snatched my loving husband. I felt drained of energy and isolated myself from the public, particularly from the opposite sex. As time passed, I yearned for these feelings to diminish, and I longed to regain the ability to connect with people regardless of their gender."
Counselling Associates for Well Being also noted that withdrawal from friends can be another consequence of dealing with the grief of losing a loved one.
"Traumatic loss often makes us withdraw from our friends and family – and all our social support systems.... his isolation can be a defense mechanism to protect ourselves from further pain or because we simply lack the energy to engage with others. Friends and family may interpret this withdrawal as rejection, causing them to distance themselves, resulting in a self-perpetuating cycle of loneliness."
A person mourning the death of a lover may also face conflict and anger, drastic change in emotional availability, and a big loss of intimacy. Counselling Associates for Well Being proposed therapy for a person going through such a phase.
