Friendships in Grief is a judgement-free zone. Have your grief seen, heard, and embraced by those who understand loss.
When you need a listening ear, friends and family aren’t always helpful. This makes grief feel lonely and isolating. And because culture questions why you’re “still sad,” finding support isn’t easy. This often makes grievers believe they’re “grieving wrong” or feel their loss is forgotten.
Confusing, isn’t it? It’s natural to go through grief. Yet, many don’t understand life after loss.
But we do. I’m a two-time widow. My world shattered when my soulmates died and after them, I buried other friends and family too.
Having these experience taught me the challenges of going through grief: the aloneness, losing important friendships, feeling like a part of me died, and wondering if these emotions would ever end.
It was tough. I had hard nights of crying, other times wondering why I wasn’t “sad enough,” and wasn’t excited to live. However, I gradually found myself integrating grief alongside my new life after loss. It wasn’t the life I thought I would’ve had, but it’s one I’m grateful to live. I’m able to enjoy life again now, and I still feel deeply connected to my loved ones. Because of this, I’ve helped others do the same.
