Grief is the intense sadness and emotional suffering we experience after a significant loss. This could be the loss of a loved one, a relationship, or even a job.
Grief is a natural response to loss, but it impacts our mental health severely. The period of grieving can last for weeks, months, and even years.
When we are unable to manage grief, we can suffer from fatigue, anxiety, stress, depression, and sometimes suicidal thoughts. It can trigger an existing mental illness or can lead to a new condition.
It is hence crucial for us to understand and manage grief to maintain our balance and well-being.
