What To Do When Someone Dies

Grief.

Grief is the normal, natural and inevitable response to loss, and it can affect every part of our life, including our thoughts, behaviours, beliefs, feelings, physical health and our relationships with others. With the support of family and friends, many people adapt to loss well and may not experience intense and persistent feelings; however, for some, the experience of grief can be overwhelming and further support may be helpful. This fact sheet from the Australian Centre for Grief and Bereavement is a great place to start.
