Ep. 583: How Long Does It Take to Heal?

Does grief have a timeline? Is there a statute of limitations on how long you’re allowed to hurt? We’ve been through our fair share of shitty situations, and have come to understand that grief and healing aren’t linear, nor are they predictable. The saying that “time heals all wounds” is only half the truth, and unless you’re intentionally working on your healing, all time will do is pass. And even when it does pass, there doesn’t seem to be a prescribed time for healing. For some, it’ll be within months, for others it may be years. We’re all on our own journeys, and it’ll take as long as it takes.What is the timeline for grief?
