Most of you are grieving, so I don't have to tell you. You already know one of the saddest things about life after loss is that, with time, sensory memories like the sound of a loved one's voice, the smell of their clothes, or the feel of their arms wrapped around you start to fade. #grief #memory #griefmemory #sensorymemory #griefandloss #secondaryloss via @whatsyourgrief Memorial Gardens, Memories Faded, Child Loss, Fitness Journal, Trd, Your Voice, New Things To Learn, Finding Joy, Best Self

I Miss the Sound of Your Voice: Grieving Sensory Memory

There are a lot of phrases that piss off people grieving, but perhaps none so much as “I know just how you feel”. Ask someone grieving to list the most annoying things people said to them in their grief. I promise this will often be near the top of the list. It is often coupled closely with the similar, “oh this reminds me of when (insert their experience here)". You would think people want empathy in grief, yet this common phrase doesn't seem to do it.

#grief #definition via @whatsyourgrief

What does it mean to be strong in grief? I think a good majority of people would believe that strength in the face of overwhelming emotion means being resistant. But strength in the context of grief is actually far different than most accepted definitions. It's brave as hell, but it feels like the opposite. #grief #griefandloss #griefsupport #strongingrief #resillience #emotionalstrength #emotionalintelligence #griefcoping #coping via @whatsyourgrief Grief Poems, Emotional Strength, Grief Support, Getting Out Of Bed, Trd, It's Meant To Be, Thoughts And Feelings, Emotional Intelligence, Definitions

Guilt and Grief: Making A Living Amends - Whats your Grief

Guilt is one of those stuck points in grief. Our brain can get caught in a loop. We go back to a moment in time and we fixate on the things we wish we had done differently. It makes it hard to remember things that happened before or after. We blame ourselves for certain things that happened - sometimes rightfully, and sometimes not.

What the Newly Bereaved Should Know

Hello to the newly bereaved. I'm sorry to meet you here in the place where loved ones leave you — a place where no one wants to be. If this is your first time here, you may find it darker, foggier, and more frightening than you expected. If you've been here before, you'll probably notice that things look different than you remember. That's the nature of this place. It's always changing, depending on who you're saying goodbye to. #grief #griefandloss #griefsupport #bereaved #newlybereaved
