To Grieve or Not to
Grieve
What is the Problem
If you need to grieve the loss of a loved one,
pet, job or any other element that left your life abruptly, by all means, do
what’s best for you. Often, you feel like you are supposed to hold in your
feelings of anger, sadness, happiness, or acceptance. The stages of grief are unpredictable and individualized. Step #1 is to be familiar
with the different ways grief can and will affect you, your life and others who support you.
Here are some normal but
unusual reactions to grief:
#1 You CAN cry
Express your grief over a precious person, pet, item,
or event in the way that you need to. The objective is to get any feelings and
emotions out that will hold you back from moving forward in life.
#2 You CAN be happy
Once again if you want to celebrate the
transition of what you lost, GO AHEAD! Everyone
grieves differently. Being happy doesn’t
mean you loved any less than you do.
#3 You CAN move forward with ease
Being stuck is another symptom that grief can cause. Whatever and however long you need to process your life
and what you need is your choice. Don’t be forced to move through your grief without setting realistic expectations for your next phase of
life.
The stages of grief and how you should be reacting can be tricky.
