Learn About Grief Recovery
Grief is normal and natural after the loss of a loved one. The only 'cure' for grief is grieving. It can't be ignored, repressed, or dismissed without lasting consequences. But there are a range of programs, tools and resources to help you cope and live with your loss.
What is Grief Recovery?
Grief recovery is simply the process of dealing with loss. Shock, confusion, depression, guilt, lack of appetite and sleep disorders are just some of the common expressions of grief. Fortunately, there are support groups, chat rooms, videos and books, and professional counselors that can help you through this painful process.
