Grief and Loss
Grief is a natural response to loss. It encompasses a range of emotions, thoughts, and physical sensations that arise after losing something or someone significant in your life. Whether it’s the death of a loved one, the end of a relationship, loss of a job, or a major life change, grief is deeply personal, and everyone experiences it differently.
While grief is a normal process, it can feel overwhelming, isolating, or confusing. It often involves waves of emotions, including sadness, anger, guilt, and even relief. Coping with grief can take time, and there is no 'right' way to grieve. Seeking support during this time can help you navigate your emotions, process the loss, and begin to find a way forward.
