Have you (or maybe someone you know) lost a spouse, life partner, or significant other? The loss can be one of the greatest stresses a person can experience. Coping with the emotional upheaval and social readjustment can be overwhelming and incapacitating. A support group can provide hope and reassurance. A support group can remind you that you are not alone. Being with others who have similar struggles can be helpful. A support group can bring different perspectives to help you on your grief journey. A support group is a place you can feel a sense of belonging. Consider attending one session and take it from there.
