Summary:
"A validating new approach to the long-term grieving process that explains why we feel 'stuck,' why that's normal, and how shifting a perception of grief can help us grow -- from the New York Times bestselling author of Motherless Daughters. Shouldn't I be over this by now? Why do I still feel the pain? Because of the common assumption that grief should be time-limited, too many of us believe we've done it 'wrong' when sadness reemerges months or even years after a major
loss
. In The
AfterGrief
, Hope Edelman offers a new and reality-affirming paradigm: grief is not an emotion to pass through on the
way
to 'feeling better,' but a state that we repeatedly return to as we experience important life transitions and new crises. Drawing from her own encounters with the ripple effects of early
loss
, as well as interviews with more than seventy-five people, Edelman offers profound advice for reassessing
loss
and adjusting the stories we tell ourselves about its impact on our identities. With guidance for reframing a story of
loss
,
finding
equilibrium within it, and experiencing renewed growth and purpose, The
AfterGrief
shows that though grief may be a lifelong process, it doesn't have to be a lifelong struggle"--Publisher.
