Dealing with the loss of a loved-one or friend.

There are 4 stages of Bereavement:

Stage 01: Accepting the loss is genuine.

Stage 02: Experiencing and feeling emotional pain and sadness.

Stage 03: Adjusting to life without the person.

Stage 04: Putting emotional energy into something else and
moving forwards positively.

Coping with bereavement can take time. Be patient and kind to yourself.

• Support groups can be really helpful and comforting to share experiences with others as well as learning how they cope.

• Writing a journal can help people understand their grieving process more easily.

• giving yourself some time and accepting things will get better.
