Surviving the holidays

Getting through the holidays after the loss of a loved one seems almost impossible for most people. You aren’t in the holiday spirit, your emotions are all over the place and most days you just want to be left alone.

During the holiday’s, people often experience some tough emotions and may even dread this time of year, whether its your first year after a loss, second, or even third year and beyond.

GriefShare will be hosting a one time grief session on surviving the holidays on Thursday, Nov. 16 at 7 p.m. at the Hot Springs County Museum.

You’ll learn how to deal with many of the emotions you may be experiencing, figure out how to handle family traditions and helpful tips for surviving social events and other changes in your life.

The program is open to anyone who is grieving the loss of a loved one, whether recent or years past.
