When you lose someone close to you, the grief and profound feelings of loss and sadness can be overwhelming.  You may feel like you are in a dark abyss as you struggle to overcome these intense feelings of grief.  While it is natural to feel sadness after a loss, counseling can help you to get through this difficult time.  At Campbell Recovery Services our team of professionals can help you to manage these intense feelings of grief after a loss.  For many people, just being able to have someone to talk to in an open and non-judgmental way can make a big difference is getting a handle on these often-uncomfortable feelings. 

It isn’t unusual for loved ones to experience depression, anxiety, and other intense emotions after a loss.  These feelings of sadness can become overwhelming, becoming a detriment to your own mental health.  Counseling to process these feelings of grief and loss can help you do so in a way that will allow yourself the time for sadness, while also making sure you are eventually again able to enjoy life to the fullest.

There are many stages to the grieving process, though the process and length of time is not the same for everyone.  The feelings when handling grief after a loss can quickly, or slowly, go through a variety of emotions, including denial, anger, bargaining, depression, and acceptance.  This is a normal process, and you should give yourself time to feel and process these often intense and confusing emotions.  By allowing yourself time to process your loss and begin the healing process, you can recover and once again restore joy and happiness to your own life.

Not processing these emotions of grief when you lose a loved one can have long-term effects on your mental and physical health.  It is important that you allow yourself the time to process your sadness and allow yourself to feel all of the, sometimes uncomfortable, feelings that go along with this.  Seeking therapy to help you through these feelings can ensure that your grief is fully processed in a way that is right for you.
