Grief is a natural reaction to the loss of a loved one, and everyone grieves in a different way.

The U.S. National Institutes of Health offers these suggestions for coping with loss:

• Take care of yourself by exercising regularly, eating healthy and getting enough sleep.
• Talk openly with friends and family.
• Do not make major changes right away.
• Join a grief support group in person or online.
• Consider professional counseling.
• Talk to your doctor if you’re having trouble with everyday activities, such as getting dressed, sleeping or preparing meals.
• Allow enough time for mourning.
