When you lose someone or something important to you, it can feel as if your world has come crashing down, and nothing will ever be the same again. It can be difficult to move on with your life. But how do you do that? And how do you move on without forgetting the person or thing you lost? This module can help you make room for your feelings and cope with grief. |  |

The young people can read about the stages of processing an intense event or loss and other psychoeducation about grief. The young participant can get started with practical exercises that support the grieving process. Videos by experts help to acknowledge and process the loss. A journal has also been added in which young people can record the state of their emotions.
