But anyone who is going through it knows that it is much more than that \u2014 and that is why so many people ask themselves, in silence, <strong>whether what they\u2019re feeling is normal<\/strong>.<\/p><p><strong>There is one fact that helps to change one\u2019s perspective<\/strong>: in a study by Yale University involving 233 people who were grieving, <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/17312291\/\">The most common negative emotion was not sadness, but longing<\/a><\/strong> \u2014 the intense longing for the person who has gone.<\/p><p>Let\u2019s take a look at some of the most common emotions. You\u2019ll probably recognise yourself in several of them.<\/p><h3>Longing and yearning for someone<\/h3><p>It\u2019s the strongest of them all. It\u2019s not just about remembering: it\u2019s <strong>to want, almost physically, for that person to come back<\/strong>. Finding yourself reaching for your mobile to tell her the news, looking for her in the kitchen, smelling her scent on a piece of clothing. It\u2019s love with nowhere to go.<\/p><h3>Sadness and emptiness<\/h3><p>There are days when you cry, and days when it\u2019s not quite sadness \u2014 it\u2019s <strong>a complete lack of colour in everything<\/strong>. The things I used to enjoy seem meaningless. The future seems uninteresting. This emptiness is frightening, but it is part of the process of rebuilding a life in which someone important is no longer present.<\/p><h3>Anxiety, fear and mental fog<\/h3><p>Grief can put us on edge. We may feel a fear of being alone, of not being able to cope, of losing someone else \u2014 or a sudden realisation of our own mortality. It is also common to <strong>difficulty concentrating and with memory<\/strong>, as if the brain were preoccupied with something else. And it is: it is processing the loss.<\/p><h3>Irritability<\/h3><p>Impatience with little things, irritation with those who \u201cdon\u2019t get it\u201d or with those who said the wrong thing at the funeral. Grief leaves less room to put up with the rest \u2014 and that is <strong>As expected, it\u2019s not a lack of character<\/strong>.<\/p><h2>The Emotions Nobody Admits to: Relief, Anger and Guilt<\/h2><p>These are the emotions that make us feel ashamed. They are therefore also the ones that cause people to doubt themselves the most.<\/p><h3>Relief<\/h3><p>When death comes at the end of a long illness, or after years of caring for someone, <strong>Feeling relief is a human response to the end of suffering<\/strong> \u2014 of the other person and of oneself. It does not, by any means, mean that one views that person\u2019s death as a positive thing. It generally means that part of oneself is at least relieved by the <strong>for the person\u2019s suffering to end<\/strong>. It does not negate love or grief: it coexists with them.\u00a0<\/p><h3>Anger<\/h3><p>In the fight against the disease, the doctors, the family, <strong>God<\/strong> \u2014 and, though it\u2019s harder to admit, that is <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">more common than it seems<\/span>, <strong>against the person who died<\/strong>: for having left, for not having sought treatment, for leaving us to sort it all out on our own. It is no coincidence that anger is one of the <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/neuropsiquiatria.pt\/en\/as-5-fases-do-luto-o-que-sao-e-como-se-sentem\/\">stages of the grieving process<\/a><\/strong> the best known.<\/p><h3>Guilt<\/h3><p>It\u2019s almost <strong>universal<\/strong>: \u201cI could have done more\u201d, \u201cI should have been there\u201d, \u201cbecause I had an argument with him last week\u201d. This includes the <strong>survivor\u2019s guilt<\/strong> \u2014 \u201cWhy him and not me?\u201d \u2014 and, quite often, after a while, even a sense of guilt for laughing or having a good day. In most cases, <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">this blame does not correspond to any actual fault<\/span>: it is the mind trying to find <strong>control<\/strong> in something over which they had no control, and over which they still have no control following their death.<\/p><h2>Reactions That Are Alarming But Common<\/h2><p>Some experiences of grief, which are considered normal from a medical point of view, may seem like signs that \u201csomething is wrong with one\u2019s head\u201d. <strong>They aren\u2019t.<\/strong><\/p><ul><li><strong>Feeling nothing or being unable to cry:<\/strong> Going through the motions at a funeral, whilst others are weeping, is the mind\u2019s way of protecting itself from the shock \u2014 it is neither coldness nor a lack of love. For many people, the emotion comes later, in waves.<\/li><li><strong>Feeling someone\u2019s presence, hearing their voice or \u201cseeing\u201d them in a crowd:<\/strong> In a classic study of widowed people, almost half reported this sort of experience. They tend to diminish over time and, for many, are comforting.<\/li><li><strong>Dreaming vividly about someone who has died:<\/strong> It is one of the ways in which the mind continues to come to terms with the loss.<\/li><li><strong>Speak to the person in a loud voice<\/strong> or writing messages to them: it\u2019s a way of staying in touch, which is very common and generally healthy.<\/li><li><strong>Laughing, and then immediately feeling guilty:<\/strong> Laughter is part of the human experience, and it\u2019s a good sign. It\u2019s life reminding us that it goes on, even if the pain is still there.<\/li><\/ul><div class=\"dica-valiosa\">Give it a go <strong>put a name to what he feels<\/strong>, rather than judging yourself. At the end of the day, write in a notebook: \u201cToday I felt ___ because of ___.\u201d Putting a name to an emotion helps you to understand it and, over time, shows you that the emotions of grief change \u2014 even when, as day-to-day life goes on, it may not seem that way.<\/div><h2>When an Emotion Gets Stuck<\/h2><p>Everything we have described is part of a grieving process that <strong>continues as normal<\/strong>: intense, contradictory, sometimes strange emotions \u2014 but <strong>in motion<\/strong>. The warning sign is never feeling \u201cthe wrong emotion\u201d. It is an emotion that stops changing and starts to \u201crun the show\u201d in your life.<\/p><p><strong>Every emotion has its own way of becoming trapped:<\/strong><\/p><ul><li><strong>The blame<\/strong> It turns into a constant judgement of oneself, which no argument or words can alleviate.<\/li><li><strong>Rabies<\/strong> It sours all relationships and drives away those who try to help.<\/li><li><strong>Numbness\/apathy<\/strong> It never lifts, and the person remains cut off from everything and everyone.<\/li><li><strong>Longing<\/strong> It\u2019s so all-consuming that it leaves no room for anything else \u2014 not work, not people, not plans.<\/li><\/ul><p>When this happens <strong>maintains<\/strong> over many months, this may be due to <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/neuropsiquiatria.pt\/en\/luto-patologico\/\">pathological bereavement<\/a><\/strong> \u2014 for which there is an effective treatment.<\/p><p>A <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/neuropsiquiatria.pt\/en\/neuropsicologia\/\">psychotherapy<\/a><\/strong> helps to unlock the <strong>pent-up emotion<\/strong>, and an appointment for <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/neuropsiquiatria.pt\/en\/psiquiatria\/\">Psychiatry<\/a><\/strong> assesses whether there are also <strong>depression<\/strong> or <strong>anxiety<\/strong> affiliated companies.<\/p><p>Ask for help, certainly <strong>does not take away the pain<\/strong>: prevents it from dictating the rest of one\u2019s life.<\/p><div class=\"nota-importante\">If the pain is accompanied by <strong>thoughts of not wanting to live<\/strong> or if you\u2019re thinking of \u201cgoing to see\u201d the person who has died, don\u2019t wait: speak to your doctor, ring the <strong>SNS 24 (808 24 24 24)<\/strong> or, in the event of immediate danger, to the <strong>112<\/strong>.<\/div><div class=\"pontos-chave\"><h2>\ud83e\udde0 Key Points to Retain<\/h2><ul><li>Grief involves much more than just sadness: longing, a sense of emptiness, anxiety, irritability and difficulty concentrating are all common reactions.<\/li><li>The most common emotion experienced during bereavement is not sadness, but longing \u2014 an intense yearning for the person.<\/li><li>Relief, anger and guilt are human and common \u2014 feeling them says nothing bad about you or about the love that existed.<\/li><li>Feeling nothing, not crying, sensing the person\u2019s presence or dreaming about them are common reactions, not signs of madness.<\/li><li>What matters is not the emotion you feel, but whether it changes over time.<\/li><li>When an emotion remains trapped for many months and gets in the way of one\u2019s life, a specialist assessment is warranted.<\/li><\/ul><\/div><h2><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">FAQs \u2013 Frequently Asked Questions<\/span><\/h2><h3>Is it normal to feel relief at the death of someone you loved?<\/h3><p>It is \u2014 and it is one of the most common yet least admitted reactions. When death brings an end to a prolonged illness or years of demanding caregiving, relief is the natural response to the end of that suffering. It is neither selfishness nor a lack of love: it is possible to feel relief and immense grief at the same time.<\/p><h3>Is it abnormal not to feel anything?<\/h3><p>No. Numbness (apathy) is one of the mind\u2019s most common defence mechanisms in the face of an overwhelming loss, particularly in the first few weeks. For many people, the emotions come later. It only warrants medical attention if, many months later, the person remains detached from their own life.<\/p><h3>Can I feel conflicting emotions at the same time?<\/h3><p>You can, and you probably will. Sadness and relief, love and anger, the urge to hold on to everything and the urge to run away from it all \u2014 grief is made up of these mixed feelings because relationships were too. This contradiction does not mean your grief is \u201cinappropriate\u201d; it means you have lost someone real.<\/p><h3>Is it normal to feel the presence of someone who has died?<\/h3><p>It is very common. Feeling that the person is in the room, hearing their voice or dreaming about them happens to many people who are grieving, and in most cases it is comforting and gradually subsides over time. An assessment is only warranted if it is frightening, constant or accompanied by other changes in thinking.<\/p><h3>Is it normal to be afraid of forgetting what someone looks like or what their voice sounds like?<\/h3><p>Yes, it\u2019s a very common fear \u2014 and often a sign that the most acute pain is beginning to ease. Forgetting the details isn\u2019t the same as forgetting the person. Photographs, saved voice messages and conversations about them help to keep the memory alive.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>O processo de luto vai muito al\u00e9m da tristeza: saudade, vazio, ansiedade, raiva, culpa, al\u00edvio e at\u00e9 n\u00e3o sentir nada.
