Grief and loss
Grief is not a problem to be solved and it does not run to a schedule. What helps is letting the wave come, keeping the bond rather than severing it, and being cared for while you carry it.

Ask gently: what has this loss awakened in me, about what matters and how I want to live?
Not to justify the loss, but to let it change you. Grief often clarifies what is truly worth your time.
Let the loss remind you that this life is short, and let that soften what you were gripping too tightly.
Remembering death is not morbid; it puts small worries in their place and returns you to what lasts.
