GRIEF & LOSS
Grief doesn’t always look the way people expect it to
Sometimes, it’s loud and overwhelming ... a wave that knocks you off your feet without warning. Other times, it’s quiet and lingering, showing up in the everyday moments that used to bring you comfort. You try to move forward, but something inside you feels stuck, frozen in time.
You smile when you have to, but underneath, you’re carrying something heavy. The world keeps turning, but you feel like you’re standing still, watching life move on while you’re still trying to make sense of the loss. It’s hard to explain, and even harder to talk about.
There are days when the ache is sharp and clear. Other days, it’s just a dull emptiness. Maybe you feel angry. Numb. Lost. Guilty for laughing. Guilty for not crying. You can’t predict how you’ll feel next, and it’s exhausting trying to pretend you’re okay when you’re anything but.
You might be wondering if this is just how life is now, if the pain will ever ease, or if you’ll always feel this far away from yourself.
