When dealing with loss, grieving is a natural, necessary emotional process that human beings go through. Though everyone has a different way of dealing with grief, there are some steps that anyone grieving can take to help remain emotionally and physically well.
What is Grief?
Grief is the natural human response to loss. It is a process of feeling the emotional pain associated with a loss and learning to live a normal life beyond the event that triggered the grief. While many people think of the death of a loved one when they think about grief, it can actually be caused by any number of other types of loss as well, such as:
- Divorce or the break-up of a relationship
- Loss of a job
- Death of a pet
- Miscarriage
- Loss of financial security
- Failure to achieve a cherished dream or goal
- Loss of the feeling of safety after trauma, crime, or injury
- Loss of health of yourself or a loved one
