The holidays can feel heavy when you’re carrying grief.
While everyone else is celebrating, you might be missing someone, missing who you used to be, or just trying to make it through the day without breaking down.
If this season feels different for you, you’re not alone and you don’t have to carry it by yourself. There are people who care, spaces that hold you gently, and services designed to help you process what you’re feeling at your own pace.
It’s okay to move slower.
It’s okay to cry.
It’s okay if joy looks quieter this year.
Support exists, and you deserve it especially now.
If you need someone to talk to right now, you can call or text 988 to reach the Su***de & Crisis Lifeline. It’s free, confidential, and available 24/7. You don’t have to be in crisis to reach out.
