You probably feel like no one understands what you’re going through and you’re probably right. Grief is the natural response to losing something or someone we love. In a general sense, people get that, but our society at large doesn’t really understand what grief is and often times that leaves you feeling like you should “get over” your loss at some point, “move on” already. No one likes to see someone they love in pain and in attempts to comfort you, they’ve invalidated you and dismissed your experience.
