What do you know about grieving? Is grieving just about death?
Grieving has many more aspects to it than death as we found out from our series for Mental Health Chats on grieving. Thank you, Peter Dundon (AKA Benny) for bringing all the facts together.
In the series, Monica Kleijn Evason and Tina Mitchell Skinner gave different aspects of death.
Ann Allen opened up the conversation of grieving, helping us to understand that grieving isn’t just about death.
Benny’s 3 take-home messages are:
1) We need to normalise death and destigmatise.
2) Be prepared for the grieving process as it takes time to heal. We shouldn’t try to speed people up.
3) Understanding and supporting others will ease the pain for the person dying and the grieving process.
