Grief is often described in stages, though each stage may last for a different period of time — for some people, the stages may be briefer or longer than for others, and some people may not experience all of them. But acknowledging that you may experience some or all of these stages will help you understand what may be happening. You should not pass judgment on yourself or allow others to — you have the right to grieve and to fully experience your grief. Your feelings are normal, and it’s important to remember that at some point, it will get better. You may not get over your loss, but you will survive it.
What happens after you survive? What then? How do you redefine yourself and move past all those feelings? How do you begin again? How do you find love, laughter and happiness again? Get help answering these questions with Avow’s licensed/credentialed counselor leading this group.
This group is offered through Zoom video conferencing. To ask questions or RSVP for this group call (239) 261-4404 or email bereavement@avowcares.org.
