Grief Recovery Outreach ProgramTM
Grief is the normal and natural reaction to loss. While the death of a loved
one is considered to be one of the most painful losses, we can also experience significant grief stemming from other life
circumstances, such as divorce or the break-up of a significant relationship, a move, loss of a job or career, retirement
and health issues. Oftentimes these situations lead to subsequent losses, such as the loss of your dreams, loss of trust in
others, and the loss of security.
Sadness, fear, anger, confusion, depression, anxiety, inability to concentrate
and insomnia are just some of the normal symptoms of grief. A person experiencing grief can feel totally alone and isolated
as they try to deal with the conflicting emotions caused by loss. GRIEF REALLY HURTS!
Unfortunately, grief is often
one of the most misunderstood and off-limit topics for discussion in our society. And as we are feeling isolated and
misunderstood, grief must be worked through in order to move forward in a healthy way. It is not uncommon for people to experience
multiple losses over the course of their lifetime. Unresolved grief accumulates and can affect our lives at many different
levels. It can adversely affect our present and future relationships, attitudes, motivation, self-confidence, self-esteem,
and many other areas of our lives.
COMMON MISCONCEPTIONS ABOUT GRIEF:
Bury your feelings.
Grieve alone.
Be strong for others.
Time heals all wounds.
Replace the loss.
