How long does grief last?
There is no set timeline for grief and anyone who tells you to 'move on' or 'get over it' is underestimating and misunderstanding the weight of loss.
That said, the length of your grieving process depends on what kind of grief you're experiencing.
-
Uncomplicated grief: Sometimes referred to as 'normal grief', most of the symptoms - including the five stages below - happen within the first two years of loss.
-
Complicated grief: This type of profound, intense grief extends for a prolonged period of time and can be debilitating.
