Grief and grieving

Grief is a normal reaction to a significant loss that may cause feelings such as sadness and preoccupation with the loss.

Grieving can elicit physical symptoms brought on by the stress of grief and life adjustment, such as problems eating and sleeping, headache, tightness in the throat, or body aches and pains.
