Life After Losing a Spouse: Understanding the Grief Process
It is normal to feel overwhelmed, lost, and confused after losing a spouse. After all, life as you knew it has suddenly changed forever. While life may never be the same again, it is possible to move forward with courage and strength while honoring your spouse's life.
The grief process takes time and understanding. Even years later, you may continue to experience moments that make you feel a deep sense of loss – but these feelings should not be avoided. Allow yourself to experience them fully and recognize that you are mourning the life taken away – honor this life, your love for them, and grieve accordingly in your way. Finding a supportive group or counselor to help you through this process can help too!
