Frequently Asked Questions

Can affirmations help with grief?

Affirmations will not take away the pain, but they can counter the harmful narratives grief creates, like "I should be over this by now."

Is it normal to feel guilty about feeling better?

Yes. Grief guilt is very common. Feeling better does not mean you love the person less - it means you are healing.
