Grief is a complex emotional response to loss, especially the death of a loved one, involving sadness, anger, confusion, and relief. It's unique to each person, shaped by relationships and culture. The grieving process may include stages like denial, anger, bargaining, depression, and acceptance, but these aren’t always linear. Physical symptoms like fatigue and concentration issues can arise, and social connections may suffer as individuals withdraw. Support from friends, family, or counselors is essential. Acknowledging grief and allowing healing time helps individuals find a new normal while cherishing memories. Understanding grief fosters empathy and improved coping for those affected and their supporters.
