 Dear Teentalker,

Thanks for reaching out.

I felt so sad after reading your issue, I can imagine the pain you are going through. Our grandparents hold a very special place in our lives. Losing a grandparent can be really painful because we can draw a lot of love and support from them, sometimes even without realizing it. It sounds like your grandpa's loss has hit you really hard and the reason you feel stuck getting through it.

Here are a few things to keep in mind: There is no one timeline for processing death, and it is perfectly normal to be experiencing upsetting emotions after your Grandp.....

 Dear Teentalker,

Thanks for reaching out.

I felt so sad after reading your issue, I can imagine the pain you are going through. Our grandparents hold a very special place in our lives. Losing a grandparent can be really painful because we can draw a lot of love and support from them, sometimes even without realizing it. It sounds like your grandpa's loss has hit you really hard and the reason you feel stuck getting through it.

Here are a few things to keep in mind: There is no one timeline for processing death, and it is perfectly normal to be experiencing upsetting emotions after your Grandpa passed away. You are absolutely entitled to your intense feelings of grief, and so is your family. If you do not want to display your grief in front of them, create a special private ritual where you can express your sadness.

Some people create small shrines for the person who died, with photos, flowers, and other little memory trinkets. You could visit this space as often as you need. Lastly, I want to reassure you that everything you are feeling is completely normal! There is no one way to mourn the loss of a loved person, and there is no time limit. It can take months or years, and we often do not “get over” or “move on” from their loss, but we learn to cope with the feelings and life without them in it.

Hope this helps, if you have any other query do connect online for chat between 11am-7pm or drop us an offline message. Please go through these helpful resources:
