Episode 25 – Healthy vs. Unhealthy Coping Mechanisms for Grief

When grief hits—especially the loss of a child—it’s human to reach for anything that helps you survive the pain. But not everything that numbs you enables you to heal.

In this episode of The Grief Guardian Podcast, we’re breaking down the difference between healthy and unhealthy coping mechanisms during grief.
Healthy coping allows your heart to adjust slowly, making space for healing and love. Unhealthy coping may offer quick relief, but it keeps you stuck in survival mode.

We’ll explore:
🕊️ What healthy coping actually looks like
⚠️ How to recognise when you’re slipping into unhealthy habits
💪 Practical ways to gently steer yourself back toward healing

Grief will always demand an outlet—the choice is whether you let it bury you or help you grow through it.

If this episode resonates, share it with someone walking their own grief journey. You never know who might need this reminder today.
