I've never actually experienced much in the way of death or loss. Friends of the family have died before. But that was way back when I was little. Wasn't allowed to go to the funeral. I've had numerous pets die in my 20 years. I think the worse one was when my cat named Trouble died. At that time, we had like 26 farm cats, but there was this one grey one that I became attached too. He was super cool, and really rambuncious.(how's that spelled?). Anyhow, I loved him. I would sneak him in the house all the time too. Unfortuneatly, one day, before he was even 2 years old, he got into trouble again, he decided to knock over a container of car polish or something, and mistaking it for something to drink, he drank some. We found him dead in a puddle of car polish the next day. It was rather sad. Especially considering how young I was at the time. I didn't take the news so well. That was the only pet I've ever really felt sad about. I know for a fact, when my dog dies, I'll be pretty sad.
As for how I would cope, I guess I can't really offer that much advice. I guess not becoming reclusive would be a good idea. For a little while isn't bad. But don't stop your life. Take some time to grieve and then get on with your life. Continue going out with friends if you have any, and keep going to your job. Otherwise you'll kick yourself for ruining what you had.
Jam it back in, in the dark.
