Coffee Date With Christina: When Will The Sadness Stop?

“Christina, I am a 3 year post-loss widow and I still have moments of overwhelming sadness and then I’m fine. WHEN will this stop? And WHAT suggestions do you have for dealing with this? I know some friends wonder how they can help. What can they do? How can I tell them when I don’t even know myself? - Diane

Listen to my answer to Diane here:

In This Episode I Talk About:

  • This will continue for quite some time. That’s why they call them the waves of grief. 

  • We never know when these feelings of sadness with subside or when they will quiet down and have less of them

  • It’s part of the way your brain and your heart is healing you. Unfortunately we can’t make them stop. They are part of the process and part of the journey. 

  • What I suggest Diane tells her friends

  • When you can’t express your love to the one you lost, express it to yourself
