The Suddenness of Grief.

article image placeholderUploaded by @iamatopodcast
I know in therapy circles they say that nobody prepares you for the grief that suddenly comes up. And that's so true. Grief does suddenly come up because for a lot of those that are hurting, there's so much in such particular kinds of grief that you can't really come to terms with it all at one time. And then at some point in your day, that grief gets triggered and it comes out many different ways

Grief is a journey, not an end result. Losing someone close to you is life changing. What I encourage others is to be present in the process. Acknowledge what feels off, what feels comforting, what feels soothing. And once you get out of that initial fog, you're in a space where you can articulate a little bit better and are more emotionally balanced to do that

Those are my current triggers, and I'm still not comfortable with it. And it's very awkward, and you can't even put words to it. And it actually does make me tear up. We have four children, two of them very young, so this is still very raw and so crazy. Crazy. So I can really identify with that part where those triggers are just in some of the most mundane things, where you just feel like, what is going on?

So I really tried to personally feel through all of my emotions as they come up as soon as possible. Obviously there are some situations where you can't immediately move through something. Maybe you're in public or at work or whatever it is. But for me, I try to feel as soon as I can
