understanding loss
When someone loses a loved one, goes through a divorce, or loses their job, there can be numerous ways in which the individual feels and experiences the loss. Grief is a normal response to any loss and can affect anyone in unexpected ways. It is an emotion that everyone will experience at some time in their life. Since grieving is an individual experience, everyone will go through the process dependent upon varying factors and coping mechanisms. Understanding the grief process and becoming cognisant of what to expect, may assist distress line volunteers to identify effective strategies to support callers who are working through their journey of bereavement.
