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
