If you lost someone close to you and find you are having problems working though daily tasks talk to them as if they are still there and promise them to do something you need to get done. (self.bereavement_tips)

This works especially well when you know it is something they would say.

After losing my wife I would often talk to her and tell her how my day has been and how I miss her. When I needed to wash laundry or clean the kitchen I would promise her in the morning that I would get it done today or in the evening that I would do it the next day. Many times I knew she would be telling me I would need to do something so I promised her just like I would when she was here with me.

It's the little things like this that can help you get through the initial things that you are dealing with and keep your life on track.
