Grief and loss can feel heavy and disorienting—whether you’re mourning a loved one, navigating the end of a relationship, or coping with another life-altering change. You might experience:
- Deep sadness or emotional numbness
- Shock, disbelief, or difficulty accepting the loss
- Anger, guilt, or regret
- A sense of emptiness or feeling “lost”
- Trouble sleeping, eating, or concentrating
- Isolation or feeling misunderstood by others
- Mood swings or waves of unexpected emotion
- Yearning for what was or what could have been
Grief doesn’t follow a straight path—it’s deeply personal and can unfold in its own time. You may also be:
- Trying to stay strong for others while struggling inside
- Feeling pressure to “move on” or “get over it”
- Questioning your identity, purpose, or future
- Dealing with anniversaries or reminders that trigger fresh pain
