As we grow older, everyone experiences loss at some point in their lives. In fact, statistics show that one in five children experience the death of someone close to them before the age of 18. However, feelings of sadness and loss are not always associated with death and often surface after some kind of loss, such as the loss of a loved one, the breakup of a relationship, pregnancy, pet, or job loss.
When people lose something important or someone important to them, the feeling of sadness can be immeasurable. Grief has mental, emotional, and physical effects that can leave a person sad, hopeless, isolated, irritable, and paralyzed. It's important to understand that healing from grief is a process, and everyone deals with this emotion differently.
Many people don't know what to say or do when someone is grieving, but it's important to be patient with them (including yourself) through the process. please.
An alternative treatment is psychotherapy. Through psychotherapy, patients are able to:
・Improve coping skills
・Reduce feelings of guilt
