The holidays can be hard for someone who is struggling with loss. Grief is a deeply painful process. Losing a loved one can make you feel powerless and vulnerable, but the grieving process is an important part of healing. Check on your loved ones who are grieving and do what you can to help them process their grief. If you are struggling through the holidays – know that you are not alone. Reach out to someone or you can find support by calling 988 for the national crisis hotline. You are not alone.
