It& #39;s going to take quite a lot of work to prevent myself from telling people off for telling people they& #39;re grieving wrong.
Don& #39;t tell someone you know how they feel about the death of their person, whoever that person was to them. You don& #39;t know. Your experiences differ.
More than anything - and this goes for most situations - people need us to listen. Listen only. Without judgement, advice, personal history or opinions. Unless specifically asked for any of those. Apparently this is hard for a lot of people to do; it is what most are missing.
