Grief doesn’t follow a script, you can't make it tidy or predictable. Your experience of grief is unique, shaped by your personal relationships and circumstances. In this video, we dive into the myths around grief, like timelines and "stages," and why feeling out of sync with other peoples' expectations doesn't mean you're doing anything wrong. You’ll learn how to embrace your own process and validate your feelings, no matter what anyone else says. Grief is as individual as love: every life, eve

Sudden loss is always devastating. Rehashing the events, and your role in them, over and over over again is #PerfectlyNormalGrief. And, it only increases your suffering. So how do you step out of relentlessly tormenting yourself with self-interrogation and blame, wondering what you might've missed, done wrong, or could've done differently? Watch this video for some tools for when your own mind is making you feel even worse. You'll find more guidance on this topic in my first book, #ItsOkThatYour

Do you have people in your life who think you should be "over it" by now? Because we have this idea that grief is a temporary inconvenience, a problem to be solved, we think that eventually you have to finish grieving so you can get on with living a "normal" happy life. That's not how grief works. Video clip from the @wpsugrief documentary #SpeakingGrief. Watch it for free at speakinggrief.org | Megan Devine

Grief Gets Different, Not Better

Normal, healthy grief lasts a lot longer than you might think. Because we have that idea that grief is a problem to be solved, we think that eventually you have to finish grieving so that you can get on with living the rest of your life a happy person. This means friends & family (and therapists!) sometimes offer well-meaning but unhelpful support. It also means grieving people might think they’re doing grief wrong if they don’t feel better fast enough. Video clip from the @wpsugrief documentary

When you're grieving, everyday life is full of reminders and grief land mines, like the first time you get to the "emergency contact" part of a form and realize you can no longer put down the name of the person who has held that spot for years. How do you look out for yourself after the person who always looked out for you has died?

For many, many people, year two feels harder, or differently hard. It sucks, and it's #PerfectlyNormalGrief. So why does the 2nd year of grief feel differently impossible than the first?

Were you surprised by the physical nature of grief? Because we don’t usually talk about the realities of grief, most people aren’t aware of the many forms grief takes. Thing is, knowing about grief's numerous physical side effects doesn't mean they aren't still stressful. In fact, sometimes being aware of that roller coaster can actually add to your stress.

It can seem like it's impossible to move through the world — or just get through your day — without receiving unsolicited advice about your grief. While most people have the best of intentions when sharing their opinions & advice, they also tend not to check in with you about whether or not what they're doing actually feels supportive. Good intentions do not equal good support. Good intentions also don't cancel out the fact that what someone said to you actually made you feel terrible. So what a

Why do all those platitudes about loss and grief just make you feel worse? If you cringe or feel angry when friends and family try to comfort you, it’s because you hear the second half of that sentence, even when they don’t say it out loud.

Anger is a healthy human emotion. It's also a healthy & normal part of grief. Yet anger is treated like a phase that you're supposed to move through as quickly and quietly as possible. Let's talk about why trying to tamp down or rush yourself through feelings of anger can only backfire, and explore why this unfairly maligned emotion deserves your attention and care.

No matter how well your memory worked before your loss, no mater how sharp and quick your mind was, your capacity to remember, comprehend, and sustain attention have most likely been impacted by grief. Because we don’t talk about the reality of grief in our culture, lots of grieving people think they've lost their minds.⁣⁣⁣ Cognitive changes, memory loss, confusion, and shortened attention spans are all very common side effects of grief.
