Feelings of grief can be hard to cope with, especially after an unexpected event. You may experience a variety of symptoms, such as anger, confusion, depression and loneliness. Read through Coping With Grief for more information on the stages of grieving, common experiences, and suggestions for easing your mourning process.

Stress can interfere with your ability to cope and may interfere with you daily life. To manage stress, you must recognize the symptoms and choose healthy ways to deal with your stress. Refer to A Practical Guide for Coping to learn the reactions to watch for, activities to help you cope, and the Do’s and Don’ts of managing stress.

When an unexpected event happens to someone close to you, such as a colleague, you may not know how to respond. Every person and situation is different, but the suggestions listed in When a Colleague Is Grieving may help you offer them the support they may need. The caring interest of coworkers and friends can be very helpful to someone who is grieving.

Substance Use Disorder is not a failure of will or weakness of character; it is a treatable disease characterized by an excessive use of alcohol or drugs. Many people can recover if they seek the proper care. Visit our Substance Use and Mental Health Services page Updated for resources to help you or a family member get on the road to recovery.
