Bereavement
Bereavement is the experience of losing someone or something significant, often leading to grief. Grieving is a natural process, but it can be deeply painful and affect all areas of life.
What does bereavement feel like?
Bereavement can feel like shock, numbness, or overwhelming sadness. Many experience tiredness, anger, guilt, or a sense of disbelief. Grief may come in waves and can affect sleep, appetite, and concentration. There is no right or wrong way to grieve.
