Frequently asked questions


What are the most common questions people ask you about dealing with grief and loss?

The most common question is:

How do you move on and when will it get easier?

 

What are some misconceptions people have about grief, and how can we address them?

One misconception is that grief is something we have to experience straight away. You obviously feel loss, but sometimes people don't allow themselves to grieve until they are ready, or they can't grieve because they have been unable to process the event due to being too busy or stressed with the events coming up to or following the loss. Grief has no timeline.

 

What kind of support or resources do you recommend for someone who's just starting their grief journey?

I recommend leaning on family, friends, and mental health charities for support as these are often most reliable.

 

Based on your own experiences, what's the one piece of advice you'd give to someone struggling with grief?

Changing who you are is inevitable after or before any loss. If someone in your life says you have changed and are not the same person, don't take it as a negative. Obviously, you aren't the same; you have had to adapt and change your life, resulting in a change of who you are. The person you are often reflects the circumstances surrounding you. Be yourself and remember you are who you are.
