Managing Grief: Coping with Grief and Loss at School

When you are confronted with loss, your immediate action might be entirely different than what you imagined. You might be stoic and feel numb, you might be overwhelmed with emotion, or you might fall somewhere in between. You might even be hit with denial and anger.

Before you do anything else, take a deep breath. Let the emotion come if it’s going to, and take a moment to deal with that. You want to be thinking as clearly as possible before you take on the next steps. Now might be a good time to reach out to a friend who can support you through the first difficult hours.

NAVIGATING GRIEF:A GUIDEBOOK FORGRIEF AWARENESS & UNDERSTANDING

Grief counselors work in a variety of settings. You may be able to find a specialized counselor at locations        associated with your loss, such as a military affairs office, a nursing home, a funeral home, a hospital or a school. Many of these locations offer grief counseling free of charge.

If you are not associated with an organization that offers grief counseling, there are still many resources available to you. Look for mental health crisis centers in your area for immediate support, and know that many grief counselors have their own private practices that are easily accessible.
