Lesson Overview

35.3 – What Grief Looks Like in Young People: Grief doesn’t wear one face. For some, it’s tears that come every night; for others, it’s laughter that hides the pain. Young people often show grief through silence, anger, or even humor. You might feel fine at school and break down when you’re alone. Adults may misread your behavior, thinking you’re moody or distracted, not realizing your world feels off balance. Grief changes how you see everything—music sounds different, time feels slower, and even small things can trigger memories. Healing doesn’t mean forgetting. It means giving your feelings a safe place to land. You can talk, write, create, or just sit quietly—every form of grief is valid. The more honest you are with your emotions, the easier it becomes to breathe through the weight of what’s missing.
