'We begin to grieve in advance, bracing ourselves for the impending loss.'
Although you may not have heard of the term ‘anticipatory grief’, there’s a good chance you’ve experienced it at some point.
By acknowledging these reactions and allowing them to surface will help your brain and body make the necessary adjustments. All of these feelings are tendrils of our grief and don’t follow a particular pattern. It’s your own unique reaction to the shock – think of it being like a train being derailed.
It’s natural to feel a loss of control during this challenging time and it’s good to just step back and identify the things that you can control and also the things you cannot control.We never know exactly when the loss will happen and this can keep us running on adrenalin.As with all grief experiences, our feelings and reactions are totally unique to each of us and there is no set pattern. It is our own journey.
