Coping with grief and loss is one of life's hardest challenges. Indeed, most grief counselors recommend people do not try to mourn alone or suppress their emotions when dealing with a loss. Struggling alone only prolongs the grief process and makes it harder to cope.

As human beings we can experience feelings of grief in response to any situation that sends us into a tailspin, whether it is the death of a loved one, betrayal of a close friend, or loss of a job.

How people grieve depends on many things, including personality and style of coping, life experiences, beliefs, and the type of the loss. The grieving process takes time. Healing occurs gradually, and cannot be forced or rushed --- in fact, there is no "normal" schedule of grieving.

Loss is often accompanied by feelings of anger, fear, sadness and loneliness. While each person experiences grief differently, understanding the grief journey can help to put feelings of loss into

context.
