Agony Aunties: Understanding Grief and Numbness After Loss
Listen now
Description
For this week’s Agony Aunties, we address a listener's concern about feeling numb after the recent death of their mother. We’ll talk about the stereotypes of what people think grief looks like, and then address the shock and emotional numbness that often follows sudden loss, along with the adaptation process during mourning, and when it might be necessary to seek professional help. We’ll also talk about the importance of proper support systems, the timing of therapeutic interventions, and accessible resources for those dealing with grief. Resources: I’ve created an app to help people navigate Grief, called Grief Works. I think it can be very useful in helping work through grief and its many stages.
