Welcome to a new episode,
Today I talk about how hard it can be to talk about grief and painful situations, both for the one affected but also for the ones around, trying to support. Many of the expectations about handling grief in society are so common that I think that everyone recognizes them. But what do these expressions actually signal?
-Don't be sad!
-Don't cry!
-Be strong!
-Buy a new dog!
How might different expressions affect a grieving person, and what can we say instead to support?
