Grief Counseling St George

Grief Counseling

We all experience loss at some point, and unfortunately, our schooling and society do not equip us with the right tools to work through the process of grief.Grief is a natural process for loss resulting from losing a job, moving to another state, or losing something close to your heart. In contrast, bereavement is another form of grief when you lose a loved one to death.

Grief can trigger different emotions leading to sadness and anger, to even anxiety. It can leave you with the feeling of longing, regret, or guilt. The emotions can vary in different intensities and even come in random waves. It can add to more confusion.

Grief Varies From One Person to Another

Adapting to a loss can vary from one person to another. Family and friends speak to you about your loss and the stages of grief. Still, the truth is that no person experiences grief as another.

For some people, it can take a few months to process the emotions ,while for others ,it can take years to even a lifetime.

Furthermore, you find loads of belief systems influencing your actions. Still, it depends on the person and their background to their ,beliefs, and the relationship lost.

For this reason, people can experience grief differently. For example, you can think there is nothing you could do differently. Or you can think it is my fault. The grief process varies from sharing those feelings with another person or being alone to dealing with it and turning away from others.

Yet, the fact remains that there is no one way of grieving that is better than another. You may find you are looking for a distraction from your loss. Or you have a lot of emotions and start delving deeper into those feelings.

“My wife passed away unexpectedly and it shook me apart. I did not know that she had a heart problem and felt that I could have done something about it. I went into a state of depression with all the why’s and what ifs. My daughter became concerned and suggested I go for grief counseling. It was the best thing I did.”

- Bernie Horseman (St George)
