If you are experiencing a serious crisis or loss, I highly recommend you read Daphne Rose Kingma's Ten Things To Do When Life Falls Apart.
You will be inspired, comforted and for each of the Ten Things there are exercises for reflection, meditation and journaling that will assist you:
1. CRY YOUR HEART OUT
2. FACE YOUR DEFAULTS (four steps to face them)
3. DO SOMETHING DIFFERENT (No, it doesn’t feel like expansion…it feels like loss but you can change your relationship to the problem)
4. LET GO (hanging on is fear, letting go is hope)
5. REMEMBER WHO YOU HAVE ALWAYS BEEN
6. PERSIST (hope is born of persistence)
7. INTEGRATE YOUR LOSS (you Are big enough if you remember who you really are)
8. LIVE SIMPLY (a surprising chapter!)
9. GO WHERE THE LOVE IS
10. LIVE IN THE LIGHT OF THE SPIRIT
And remember: There is more to you than what you ordinarily think of as yourself
