RALLYING YOUR SUPPORT TEAM
Helping Them Help You
Our friends, our families, our therapists, our books, our cultural
responses—they’re all most useful, most loving and kind, when they help
those
in grief to carry their pain, and least helpful when they try to fix what isn’t
broken.
Most people want to help; they just don’t know how.
There’s such a huge gap between what people want for us, and what they
actually provide with their support. It’s no one’s fault, really. The only way
to
close that gap is to let people know what works, what doesn’t, and how we
can
all improve our skills in caring for each other.
