There are no words to describe the overwhelming sense of pain you feel when a significant person in your life dies. It can be one of the most difficult experiences of life.<\/p><p>Our society has unrealistic attitudes about grief and loss, and often responds inappropriately.\u00a0 Most people do not understand what is normal in grief, expressing their unrealistic expectations in ways that can seem to be less than sensitive to the grieving person. Often others feel uncomfortable with our grief and so, shortly after the funeral is over, the person or the loss is not mentioned.\u00a0 There sometimes seems to be a conspiracy of silence. People are afraid to say or do the wrong thing, so they say and do nothing \u2026 which is possibly the worst thing.<\/p><p>So here are a few simple facts about grief and grieving:<\/p><ul><li><strong>Grief is a normal reaction to what is always an unwelcome event.<\/strong> You are not \u201cgoing crazy\u201d, or \u201closing your mind\u201d (although sometimes it may FEEL like you are.) Grief is not abnormal, or a mental health disorder. It is a natural response to any loss, a protest if you like against something you do not like and sadly cannot change.<\/li><\/ul><p><strong>Practical Suggestion<\/strong>: Give yourself permission to grieve; because that will help you come to terms with what has happened.<\/p><ul><li><strong>Every life loss leads to a grief reaction.<\/strong> There is no one, neat orderly way to go through grief. The meaning of a death or any loss is <strong>personal and unique<\/strong> to specific individuals, based on the relationship that has been lost as a result of the loss. Everyone has their own unique cluster of emotions and reactions as they go through their grief journey. So often people try to suggest that we should \u201cnot be emotional\u201d or tell us \u201cyou mustn\u2019t cry; you have to be strong; life must go on\u201d and other \u201cpull it together\u201d statements. They might even suggest that \u201cit\u2019s been 3 months; you ought to be over it by now.\u201d But in fact, grief does not work like that. We are all unique individuals who have lost a unique relationship, and the way in which we cope and the time frame we need to come to terms with our loss is going to be different for everyone.<\/li><\/ul><p><strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p><p><strong>Practical Suggestion<\/strong>: Be patient with yourself because grief often takes much longer than people who haven\u2019t been through it seem to think.<strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p><ul><li><strong>The worst kind of loss is YOURS. <\/strong>A loss is a very personal matter. It seems like the worst possible thing that could have happened to you.\u00a0 People may try to comfort with you with statements like, \u201cIt could have been worse.\u201d But that rarely makes us feel better. <strong>The worst kind of loss is yours.\u00a0 <\/strong>When you lose a significant person from your life, whatever the relationship, it hurts and nothing takes away from your right to feel the loss and grief the absence of that person from your life.<strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/li><\/ul><p><strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p><p><strong>Practical Suggestion<\/strong>: You have a right to be grieving and to feel emotional because your life has changed. So where can you find people who can identify with the depth of your sense of loss? Friends and family? A support group? A website?<\/p><ul><li><strong>The whole world is suddenly different<\/strong>. When we experience any significant loss, it is not simply a matter of dealing with the death, or the emotions relating to it. Any model of the grief process should integrate how a person\u2019s world is<strong> forever transformed<\/strong> by their loss, rather than suggesting a return to some pre-existing, established behavioural or emotional state following their \u201crecovery\u201d from the loss. It is not just a simple matter of \u201cgetting over it and moving on.\u201d You feel like your entire world has changed, and so you are struggling to come to terms with a situation that you did not want, that you do not like, but one you have to deal with anyway.<strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/li><\/ul><p><strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p><p><strong>Practical Suggestion<\/strong>: In what ways does your world seem to have changed, and in what ways is it still the same. Write out how you feel about that.<\/p><ul><li><strong>Grieving is something we DO, not something that is done to us.<\/strong> We should be encouraged to be <strong>active<\/strong> in facing life challenges rather than simply being <strong>passive reactors<\/strong> to them; in other words, we should be proactive rather than reactive. <strong>\u201c<\/strong>Who we are\u201d must not simply be defined by our experiences, but rather by our reaction and responses to those experiences.<strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/li><\/ul><p><strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p><p><strong>Practical Suggestion<\/strong>: What can I do TODAY get some help or to make the changes that I need to make. so I can to begin to move forward?<strong style=\"font-size: 1rem;\">\u00a0<\/strong><\/p><ul><li><strong>Effective grief work is not done alone. <\/strong>Many people mistakenly believe that grief is so personal we want to keep it to ourselves. But grieving people need to talk. However, not everyone will be willing or even able to respond to you. Accept that and try to find a support group or a counsellor who can help. Or talk to someone who has been through a similar experience.\u00a0 I believe in the power of shared experiences, and often others who have been through the deep places can be a real help.\u00a0 Grief is about coping with the loss of a relationship and often in a helping relationship, relief can be found.<\/li><\/ul><p><strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p><p><strong>Practical Suggestion<\/strong>: Is there a grief support group in your community that could offer some encouragement or help? Ask your doctor, clergy or funeral director for information, on what resources are available.<\/p><ul><li><strong>The greatest gift<\/strong> we can give to ourselves is simply validating the significance of our loss, acknowledging that our world has changed, and holding on to hope that life can have meaning again, even though it has changed.\u00a0<\/li><\/ul><div>\u00a0<\/div>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-top-column
