Bereavement refers to the experience of losing your loved one.
Grief refers to an overall internal experience that involves the physical and psychological reactions towards the death of a loved one, or a major loss.
Mourning refers to the process of adapting to the passing of a loved one or a major loss. Mourning acts are expressed publicly in memory of the deceased, and are influenced by the individual's social, cultural and religious background.
Grief is a normal response to the loss of our beloved ones. When we lose our loved one, we all learn to grieve well and adapt to the loss.
If you continue to experience extremely intense grief reactions which get even worse over time, exceed the expected norms and have significantly disrupted your daily functioning, you may need to be alerted and should seek professional support.
