Grief and Loss: Moving Homes (Apartment Guide Article)

I was recently interviewed to comment on how to say goodbye to a home. We look into how leaving a home can be a form of loss.

Some of the main points covered in the article -

  • Emotional Attachment: Leaving a home can evoke a deep sense of grief and loss due to the emotional attachment formed over time.

  • Significance of Memories: Homes often hold significant memories, making the transition akin to losing a part of oneself.

  • Therapeutic Approaches: Acknowledging and processing these feelings through therapy can help in managing the emotional impact.

  • Rituals for Closure: Engaging in rituals such as a farewell gathering or a memory book can provide a sense of closure and aid in the grieving process.

  • Support Systems: Leaning on support systems, including friends, family, or a therapist, is crucial for emotional support during this transition.
