Bereavement and grief are very complex and stressful issues. The loss of a loved on can totally devastate those of us who remain in their absence. There is nothing odd, nor weak, nor unusual about bereavement. It is something that most of us will experience at one point in our lives. Everyone is different and people recover at different rates. You may be able to do it on your own, or with the invaluable help of close friends and family. But some of us will need some extra help, perhaps in the form of bereavement counselling or support group. If you do need help, then reach out for it, visit your GP or contact one of the organisations listed below. Your not the first person to need external help and you will certainly not be the last. Many people have benefited from bereavement counselling and there are now hundreds of bereavement support groups all over the country. It's far better to remedy our grief and anxieties during the beginning stages, rather than letting it manifest itself for months, or even years. Unresolved grief can lead to to serious conditions requiring treatment and professional help. Thankfully though few of us suffer to this extent. However unlikely that it may seem right now, there is light at the end of the tunnel, these dark times will pass. Although we will always miss our friends and loved ones time can be a great healer. The National Association of Bereavement Service; 20 Norton Folgate, London E16DB (tel 020 7247 1080) offers advice on bereavement help organisations.
