Losing a spouse, friend, or family member can be one of the most challenging experiences for older adults. The grieving process can lead to depression and emotional distress. How have you or someone you know navigated grief and loss? Have support groups, counseling, or spiritual practices helped you find peace during difficult times?

Grief is a part of life, all of us experience grief, however, if we cannot cope with grief and loss properly, it will not only affect us mentally but also physically. Headache, loss appetite, dry mouth, nausea are some common problems. You might also experience stomach pain, fatigue etc. Since baby boomers have lived a long life they experienced grief and loss multiple times. if these issues are not handled properly, they might even become depressed.
