Grief, Loss and Bereavement

Grief is the pain, misery, anguish, suffering, or distress caused by bereavement.

Loss occurs as a result of losing a possession, a person, or can be caused by deprivation or a change of circumstance. Losses can occur through the death of a child, a spouse, a friend, hero, leader, or relative.

Bereavement is caused by loss, especially the loss of a loved one. A loss of position in the community, dignity, security, or reputation can result in feelings of bereavement.
