Grief is a deeply personal experience that can arise from losing a loved one, the end of a relationship, a major life change, or other significant losses. Everyone processes grief differently, and emotions can range from sadness and anger to guilt and numbness.

Common experiences of grief include:

  • Intense sadness, loneliness, or emotional numbness

  • Feelings of guilt or regret

  • Difficulty focusing or maintaining daily routines

  • Changes in sleep or appetite

  • Avoiding reminders of the loss or feeling stuck in grief
