Have you ever felt like you're grieving not just a loss, but grieving grief itself? In this episode, I introduce the term "meta grief"—the invisible sorrow that comes from being tired of grieving, worn down by ongoing tragedy, or overwhelmed by the endlessness of loss. If you've felt grief fatigue or wondered how long this will last, this episode is for you.
You'll learn:
What meta grief means and why I created the term
How grief fatigue, burnout, and despair show up in everyday life
Why it's normal to feel overwhelmed by ongoing personal or global loss
The hidden grief of knowing there's always more grief to come
How to cope when you're sick and tired of grieving
