Living With Loss: General Bereavement Support Group
New York: Video
The loss of a loved one can be a very difficult time. You may find yourself experiencing feelings of sadness, anger, frustration and confusion. Although these feelings are normal and common, they can leave you feeling alone at times, and you may feel like you have no one to talk to. Speaking about these emotions with others who understand can be comforting and help you feel less isolated.
