Losing my grandma left a void in my life. It was a pain I never expected, and it felt like everything had changed. I couldn't sleep, I barely ate, and I just wanted to stay in bed all day. I missed her so much, and I felt angry at the world and guilty. It seemed like everyone else was moving on, but I was stuck.

My family worried about me and suggested therapy. I wasn't sure how talking to a stranger would help, but seeing the therapist really brought a change in my life. They listened without judgement, and I could finally express all the emotions I had kept inside me. Therapy wasn't about fixing me, it was about understanding my grief. My therapist helped me make sense of my feelings and helped me cope better.

Grieving took time, but therapy helped me explore my pain and slowly find myself again. Writing down my thoughts became a way to release the heaviness in my heart. Therapy also taught me self-care. I learned to be gentle with myself, accept my emotions, and do things I enjoyed, like taking walks or pursuing hobbies.

The pain of losing my grandma won't disappear completely, but I'm learning to live with it. Therapy gave me hope, and with each session, I felt a little stronger. The happy memories I have of her are my source of strength now.
