When to Seek Help with Grieving

We grieve the loss of a family member, friend or a beloved pet. In fact, grieving is so normal that when someone doesn't show signs of grieving we may worry that he or she is in denial of grief. The process of working through grieving is different for everyone, but sometimes people get stuck in grieving and it starts to take over their lives. In response to a letter from a woman who is having a hard time recovering from the death of her mother, I offer advice about when to seek help with grieving.
