David Kessler explains that grief is personal. Some people need time off to process, others find work helps pace their feelings. Neither choice is wrong.
Is it better to take time off or work through my grief?
Grief is very.
Individual.
For some people.
Taking time.
Off is the rest they need.
It's the time they need to process everything that's happened.
Other people want and need to go.
Right back to work.
And sometimes we judge them as they're not grieving, they're grieving wrong. But you never know. They may go to work and come.
Home every night and cry.
And there are people who want to go back to work because the emptiness of the whole day would really be.
Too much for them to handle.
So sometimes going back to work is a way we pace our feelings. For others, staying home from work could be a way we process.
Our feelings. It's very individual. Do what feels right for you.
