Have you experienced the loss of a family member or friend?

Are you numb to the feelings you once had, wondering if you will be able to really enjoy life again?

Do you find yourself not getting close to others in order to avoid losing someone again?

Do you feel an emptiness when going about your daily activities?

Do you view life differently, some things don't matter like they used to?

Do you try to keep busy and focused on other activities so you don't think about your loss?

Have you reached the goals you set for yourself and now you wonder "Is this it?"

Grief and loss don't have to occur only when someone in your life dies.

It occurs when you realize you have to stop dreaming of that life you thought you were going to have.

It can be when a friendship or a marriage ends.

You can experience it when your company downsizes or goes out of business and you lose your job.

It can occur as you age and you realize you do not have the relationship with your parents, siblings or children, or spouse/significant other that you would have liked.
