What is Bereavement?
Bereavement is the process of grieving and mourning the loss of a loved one. It involves a range of emotional, physical, and psychological reactions that vary from person to person.
How it Negatively Affects Your Life:
Bereavement can cause intense feelings of sadness, anger, guilt, and loneliness. It often leads to disruptions in daily routines, sleep disturbances, and physical health issues. Prolonged or complicated grief can result in depression, anxiety, and difficulties in resuming normal life activities.
How Treatment Helps:
Grief counseling provides a supportive environment to express and process emotions related to loss. Therapy helps individuals understand their grief, develop coping strategies, and find ways to honor their loved one. Support groups offer a sense of community and shared experiences, aiding in the healing process and helping individuals move forward with their lives.
