Can Grief Make You Sick?
For me, grief feels like weight. Like my limbs are actually heavier. I wake, and before my eyes open, I know. Not because of any memory or thought, but because my eyelids, my chest, my legs are heavier than they should be. How does the grief feel for you? I remember being genuinely surprised that grief wasn’t just emotional, it was physical. And, it turns out, grief can actually make you sick.
