Grief & Loss Resources
Many of us are facing different types of loss and experiencing grief during this time. We may be experiencing loss of connection with family and friends, loss of a relationship, loss of income or a job, or someone we care about has passed away.
Common grief reactions include:
- Shock, disbelief, or denial
- Anxiety
- Distress
- Anger
- Periods of sadness
- Loss of sleep and loss of appetite
Coping with grief reactions can be complicated and we want you to know you are not alone. Please reach out to a community resource or visit one of the websites to learn more.
