Woman praying in churchDeath is an obvious reason to grieve. But after reading, “3 Kinds of Grief Nobody Talks About,” I was reminded of the less discussed sorrow we go through.

There is the loss of the person you knew before mental illness and addiction. There is the grief that comes from realizing your parents were not there for you the way you needed them to be. There is also the loss of the you before your diagnosis.
