Grief is a deeply personal and often misunderstood experience. It doesn’t follow a straight path or a timeline. It doesn’t look the same for everyone. And while it’s commonly associated with the death of a loved one, grief can stem from any significant loss, including a relationship ending, a major life transition, the loss of a job, a serious health diagnosis, or even a shift in personal identity.
