How to be there for your loved ones who are in pain ?

Updated: Mar 18, 2023

"Pain is what makes us admire the good in the life" -I wish all the pain just disappears from my life. I hope what you just read happens truly but being practical we know that is not likely.

Life is like a glass of tap water where the impurities compare to the pain and the clear water is the happiness or good in the life. Infact if life was only good, we wouldn't have savoured the good time and take it all for granted. "Pain is unavoidable so we should be there for our loved ones who are suffering" -Pain is rather imminent and support from friends and family can help greatly to get through it. Whenever we feel someone we know is in pain, the first thing to do is reach out to them and just be there for them cause someone in pain is less likely to ask for help even when ²w really need it. "Try to listen to them by being present mentally and physically and don't offer solutions" -While being there for someone who is hurting, offer your ear and really listen without any assumptions whilst acknowledging what they've said and comforting them by saying for example "Thank you for trusting me on this". Try not to offer solutions and not making it about yourself by comparing it with something happened with you. "Don't compare their pain to someone else's and acknowledge if you're clueless a out what to say" -Try avoiding saying things like "You'll feel better tomorrow" or "You'll get over it" as this might minimize their emotions as they're feeling the pain now so we have to be there for them in the present. If clueless about what to say acknowledge that. Never compare their pain to someone else's but instead offer support by little gestures such as bringing over dinner etc. So, even though it's not possible to be with someone always, but always be there for your loved ones by recommending those in need to find psychologist near me for anxiety and depression.
