Humans are more complex beings, and their lives are always connected to losses. This can be the death of a loved one, but it can also include the loss of a home, a job, the ability to work, health, or a break in a relationship with someone important. The natural reaction to this is grief. This experience includes emotional pain, sadness, anger, helplessness, guilt, and despair.

These feelings are very unpleasant and heavy, so a person may want to avoid them, suppress them, or fill their time with activities to avoid facing the sense of loss. But these feelings can only be processed by living through them. It is crucial to have the opportunity to talk about it. The "work of grief" takes as long as necessary, no less. According to E. Lindemann, the "work of grief" is a necessary process to cope with the loss, "to become independent of the loss, adapt to the realities of life, and build new relationships with people and the world."
