Grief Comfort and Grief Criticism on Social Media

In this episode, we dive into the world of grief in the digital era. Specifically we talk about what it really means to express sorrow online and the frustrating misconceptions that grief posts are just for attention. Some people turn to social media for support during tough times and genuine empathy means looking past the many assumptions about what's behind these posts.  Sign up for our free February grief support webinar here.  Visit whatsyourgrief.com for hundreds of free articles we've written about all things grief and loss.  Join the WYG Hub (it's our griever member community - think of it as our Patreon, but a zillion times better).
