Grief is not linear

2 answers · from the Hello Angel grief library

Why do I feel like I'm not healing because my emotions keep changing?

Grief is not a straight path, and emotions naturally rise and fall. Changing feelings do not mean you are doing grief incorrectly.

Why do I have good days and bad days that feel completely different?

Grief moves in waves, not stages, so your experience can shift day to day. Both good and hard days are part of the same healing process.
