Requests for help Write your story Today the situation is this: I don’t have close friends or girlfriends with whom I could spend time and talk. And I really miss friendship. I don’t have a loved one, I can only fall in love with someone as flawed in soul as I am. And even if I meet a good guy, I consider myself too bad for him. I often have thoughts that relationships are evil, that it is better to be alone. Sex is not for freaks like me. I am not too beautiful either in appearance or in soul. The work is tiring. And I can't understand why? Either I take on more responsibilities than anyone else, or I am unbearable, others also work on the same schedule, under the same conditions. I constantly want to quit, but at the same time I get scared when I’m about to send a resume for some vacancy, and calling it is a micro-heart attack. A house is a rented room in a communal apartment, where you can’t bring anyone to visit because it’s embarrassing. And I can’t afford to eat anything else. I practically don’t communicate with my parents. I have a lot of anger and resentment towards them. Apathy is my scourge. I force myself to take a shower, I no longer force myself to cook. Why eat hamburgers when? Washing dishes is unbearable for me. It’s just that on weekends in the morning, when I have the strength, I clean up all the mess that has accumulated over the week. And see you next weekend. Why maintain order if I live here alone and don’t have guests? I smoke right in the room. And what, am I a girl? The girl no longer cares that she is a girl. At home, she is a being without gender, age, race, personality or name. At home you can be yourself, be nobody. But at work you need to wear a mask of well-being, and every day this is becoming more and more difficult. They say that antidepressants, psychologists, and therapy will not guarantee relief from depression. Especially when it’s like mine from early childhood, or even in the genes themselves. I don’t know how to think differently, I don’t know how to be happy, trust people, accept people, accept myself. And no one will teach me this. Is it possible to come to terms with depression, learn to coexist with it in the same body and thereby minimize the damage caused to it? For me the answer is no. One night I wrote a to-do list of everything I needed to do before committing suicide. Clear your browser history, put things in order, delete social media accounts, etc. Since then I have been planning how I will do it. And when I'm nervous, only thinking about it can bring me back to cold calm. I installed an application that counts down the days until the date by which I must complete the things that I think I must do to clear my conscience. The best thing about all this is that there is no one to be upset about my disappearance. I'm even betting that the first three weeks won't even miss me. Simply because there is no one. I’m so alone that you can only be more alone in space.

Yulechka, hello! In reality, we are never alone, even though it may seem so. There are Higher powers with us, we are always connected with Them, we just forgot about it and about these Powers completely! We are souls who are eternally connected with the Creator, we do not live on our own, I understand, perhaps now it is difficult to understand (I didn’t feel or understand it before either), but this is so, there is so much knowledge about this from the Saints, you can read spiritual literature, the lives of the Saints, how many trials they went through, but they believed God and lived! Because life is the most valuable thing we have and if we don’t value it, then it will only be worse for us. And if you turn to God, your Guardian Angel, for help, you will be surprised how they can respond; you can even ask in your own words and you will receive hints on how and what to do next. Remember, you are never alone! We are connected in an eternal relationship. God help you!

Hello. Yulia, you should try to see a psychologist, and take vitamins and antidepressants as prescribed, but having so many complexes is not good. It’s understandable when teenage girls are not confident in themselves, dissatisfied with their lips, breasts, nose, the shape of their ears... But you are an adult, an independent, responsible, smart woman, that’s the first thing. Secondly, even if you don’t like yourself fully, this doesn’t mean that you can’t please men. They look at us from a different perspective, from their point of view, and believe me, it’s not the size of our feet or the shape of our cheeks that is the most important thing in a relationship. You know, my loved one often says - “back view, front view, in different poses, in photos, and in real life now it’s not a problem to find. But for a woman to be understanding, loving, faithful, caring, and someone you can trust is rare.” I'm sure you will become a wonderful wife when you meet your other half. And you want to look great, cook deliciously, and clean your room. The main thing is don’t despair, don’t be discouraged! Look for your loved one. Take a look at Orthodox dating sites. Chat, meet. Hobbies, interests, do not forget about interesting activities - cinema, music, drawing, reading, etc. Don't be afraid to pursue your happiness. It's waiting for you, Julia.

Yulechka, how much pain there is in your story and how familiar it all is, very... It’s just really how I read my story. Hold on, what else can I say, it’s bad that you were planning suicide, and even counting down the days. The fear of great sin stops me from this, because life does not end with suicide. We cannot exist only in the body, because man is such a mysterious, great creature. Please think about this and know that you are not the only one, there is also me and, probably, other people. But we will not give up, we will do everything possible to win together!

No matter, age: 34 / 11/14/2019

Hi Julia, your state of mind and the point in your life right now are very sad. I am in the same situation, and I would never have thought that at 25 I would get to this point and the end point would be a lot of work on myself, going to doctors and psychiatrists. I understand how you feel, it’s close to me, but dear, I’m sure that somewhere inside there lives a STRONG GIRL who will look at herself and understand that she deserves to be happy, surrounded by those friends, just spiritually close people and a loved one . Your fears about work, a mess in the house, disrespect for your body (believe me, I went through this too), everything also brought me down and I stopped being a girl, a woman. But! I want to tell you that wake up one day and do something pleasant for yourself, even if it is trivial, but pleasant, and when you do it regularly, you will see how much you deserve everything. Write a list of things that you would like to do for yourself, in life, to live, let these things be an impetus. I believe that you can do it and the little girl will now turn into a Strong and Amazing Girl. And everything is solvable, changeable, but you must believe in it and work on yourself a little bit.

Procedure on the first day after the funeral

How to clean the house after a funeral?

Having said goodbye to the deceased, the first thing to do is arrange the apartment after his departure. Be sure to disinfect and clean the room. This will not offend the memory of the deceased, and you will be able to quickly free yourself from the heaviness in your soul. After all, a clean house means clean thoughts.

It is not recommended to carry out such procedures on your own. Immediately after death, decay processes begin to occur in the body of the deceased; after just a couple of hours they reach the peak of their activity. To prevent the spread of bacteria and infections, it is necessary to thoroughly disinfect and ventilate the room. This can only be done with special chemical compounds. In addition, many find it mentally very difficult to clean, erasing the last traces of their loved ones’ presence in the house. It is best to entrust this difficult work to specialists, for example, from the city funeral service.

What to do after the funeral with the bed of the deceased?

If a person passes away in bed, it will also need to be disinfected. It is best to discard bedding and accessories and have your bed or sofa professionally cleaned.

Is it possible to keep the clothes of the deceased after the funeral?

It is also difficult to say goodbye to the things of the deceased. Nevertheless, it is necessary to do this. The clothes that a person was wearing at the time of his death should not be stored or given to someone: this can be hazardous to health, such things must be disposed of.

Other personal belongings of the deceased do not pose a threat. However, most often psychologists recommend leaving only the most expensive and memorable items. At the same time, it is not necessary to throw away the clothes of a deceased relative: they can be donated to those in need or to charitable organizations by performing a good deed.

Is it possible to bring home an icon from the coffin after a funeral?

There is no single rule on how to deal with an icon from a funeral: sometimes relatives, after the funeral service, leave it in the church or transfer it to the temple of the patron saint of the deceased. After 40 days, when the soul is at rest, the funeral icon can be taken home and stored in the red corner. On days when loved ones commemorate the deceased, the icon is placed in a prominent place, and a candle or lamp is lit next to it.

Christian customs do not prohibit burying the deceased along with the icon. Therefore, the question remains entirely at your discretion.

9 and 40 days after the funeral: Orthodox Christians hold a wake

According to the teachings of Orthodox Christians, funerals are held on the 3rd day: it is believed that this period is required for the soul of the deceased to complete all matters and find peace.

It is believed that from the 3rd to the 9th day, a heavenly angel lifts the soul of the deceased to the gates of heaven. It is at this time that relatives organize the first wake and order a special service in the temple - this helps the deceased cope with the transition to the afterlife. A wake after the funeral is also organized for 40 days, when the soul’s journey through the halls of hell ends and it awaits the Last Judgment. The prayers of loved ones help the deceased to pass this difficult path. The meeting of relatives on such a day at the cemetery also ends with a wake.

The timing of funerals differs in different religions. For example, Catholics organize them on days 7 and 30, and Muslims on days 7 and 40.
