Find A Support Group
It's important to note that not everyone may find support groups helpful, and people grieve in their own ways.
Some individuals may prefer individual counseling or therapy, while others may rely on their existing support networks of family and friends. Ultimately, the choice to join a support group after a loss is a personal one, and individuals should do what feels most beneficial for their healing process.
