But you will need to make a conscious choice to heal. You will need to fight for your life. You will need to embrace a new perspective. With a loss, it is normal and understandable to feel like giving up, to no longer show up, trust, believe or love again. It is normal to feel scared, angry, devastated, lost, confused and to even question God.
Your loved ones mean well, but do they have the tools, expertise, skills or knowledge YOU need at this time in your life? Their coping strategies may not work for you, be sustainable, healthy or appropriate.
