Symptoms of Grief: What to Watch For

Grief manifests differently for everyone, but there are common symptoms that many experience after losing a loved one. If you or someone you know is dealing with grief, you might notice some of the following:

• Intense sadness, sorrow, or emotional pain
• Persistent thoughts about the loss
• Difficulty accepting the reality of the death
• Emotional numbness or detachment
• Anger or resentment related to the loss
• Loss of purpose or meaning in daily life
• Difficulty trusting others
• Guilt about finding joy or pleasure in life again

Grief can also trigger symptoms of depression or anxiety, leading to challenges in carrying out everyday routines. If these emotions persist or worsen, it’s essential to seek support from a professional therapist.
