I meant, say, someone you know dies; spouse, sibling, parent, uncle, friend, mentor, etc., how do you cope with the loss?
Personally, I haven't 'lost' anyone, say, in the last decade, and before that, I'm pretty sure my cognitive abilities were as absent as a murderer's heart.
Examples:
"I drank tea when my cat died"
"I visited the shrink when my papa died"
"I asked my Diety (God, or anyone holding Holy Power, like Buddha for Buddhists, Jesus for Christians, etc.)"
"I cried, had some Ice Cream, and watched Shindler's List to help ease my situation"
(((You get the Idea)))

"This world is a blank price tag, and whatever value you put on it, is what its worth to you. I have made this world priceless and worthless, so therefore I have placed my value in the afterlife."
don't cry on funeral...but i cry when i'm reading a book...isn't that strange...
Never been to a funeral, probably never will. Hooray for me and my family's good health and avoidance of death!

Our Lord! Verily, we have heard the call of one calling to Faith: 'Believe in your Lord,' and we have believed.
Our Lord! Forgive us our sins and expiate from us our evil deeds, and make us die (in the state of righteousness) along with Al-Abrar
