Even if family and friends surround you, a big piece of what made your holidays special each year will be missing, and there\u2019s simply no way to fill the void. Social situations, celebrations meant to evoke joy, and even seemingly benign moments like a trip to the mall will all be punctuated by a sadness that others may not understand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you\u2019re experiencing your first Christmas after loss, here are four ways to survive until January.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3>1. Be honest with yourself.<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">There\u2019s so much pressure for grievers to put on a brave face and move forward as normally as possible after a loss. At Christmas, this can mean keeping up with all your typical traditions, attending the parties you go to every year, and finding joy in purchasing or making gifts for your family and friends. In truth, though, this holiday will not be like all the others. Be honest with yourself about how difficult some of your usual traditions may be. Instead of putting on a brave face, allow yourself to lean into the sadness and acknowledge that this Christmas is going to be hard.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3>2. Be honest with others.<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Some people might ask you directly what you do or do not want to do during your first Christmas without your loved one. Others may make assumptions based on their own experiences of grief. In both cases, it\u2019s important to speak up with your true feelings and preferences. You owe it to yourself to carry on the important traditions, leave behind those that feel dissonant now, and protect yourself from social situations that you don\u2019t feel ready for.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3>3. Honor your loved one with a new tradition.<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Whether you\u2019re hoping to keep longstanding family traditions or not, it can be healing to create a new tradition that honors your loved one. It could be something completely private \u2013 reading their favorite poem or Bible verse on Christmas Eve or watching their favorite holiday movie with the smell of their favorite coffee brewing. Or, you could opt for something the whole family participates in, like lighting a candle in your home for your loved one and sharing aloud your most cherished memories.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3>4. See a grief counselor.<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Your first Christmas without your special person will undoubtedly be one of the most difficult moments along your grief journey. There is <a href=\"https:\/\/www.forevermissed.com\/blog\/five-reasons-to-consider-grief-counseling\/\">no shame in seeking professional help<\/a>, especially when everyone around you may seem consumed with the joy of the holiday season. Talking through your feelings and worries with a counselor can be cathartic in and of itself, but you\u2019re also likely to leave with ideas for healthy ways to cope that will serve you during the holidays and beyond.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Your first Christmas after a loss will be challenging in many ways, but <a href=\"https:\/\/www.forevermissed.com\/blog\/grief-at-the-holidays-10-tips-for-coping\/\">it\u2019s possible to make it through<\/a>.
