Breaking Sad What To Say After Loss What Not To Say And When To Just Show Up Shelly Fisher by Shelly Fisher, Jennifer Jones 9781631522420, 1631522426 instant download after payment.

Real stories and real feedback on what should be said, what should be kept to yourself, and what can be done when trying to support someone you care about as they navigate loss.

When someone loses someone or something they love, there's no cookie-cutter, one-size fits all "fix" that will magically take their pain away. Each person grieves, heals, and processes trials and tribulations differently. In Breaking Sad, Shelly Fisher and Jennifer Jones explore everything from the loss of a loved one, the loss of a job, and the loss of health, delving into personal experiences from people on the other side of all of our good intentions to share some insight regarding the questions we're unable to ask: How do I help? Is it better to say nothing? Should I share what my experience was like? 

The pages of this book are lined with real stories and real feedback to those questions and more. Amongst our many differences lies a similar need for understanding, comfort, and support; Breaking Sad helps us start conversations through its pages of personal stories and suggestions from everyday survivors - bringing us all to a place where we can more comfortably offer support and caring to people when they need it most. 

Featuring stories from Montel Williams, Olivia Newton-John, Scott Hamilton, Giuliana Rancic, Valerie Harper, and more!
