It’s a heart-breaking situation that plays out time-and-time again when people retire and unknowingly are affected by grief as they transition into retirement. Grief can be defined as a natural, and often painful response to a loss. Another challenge with retirement grief is that it is often disenfranchised. Therefore, it’s important and normal to oscillate between these thoughts and feelings as part of the transition into retirement. Wherever the support comes from, connecting with new people or places as well as re-connecting with others on a different level, can go a long way in helping you overcome retirement grief.
