Recent research highlights that unresolved grief can significantly impact physical health, causing inflammation and negative immune response. An 84-year-old woman's unexplained symptoms post-loss underline that grief can trigger stress hormones similar to serious injuries. Persistent inflammation can lead to complex grief symptoms, such as fatigue and withdrawal, potentially lasting longer than six months. Experts recommend managing grief through sleep, diet, exercise, and social interactions to mitigate health risks associated with prolonged grief and inflammation.
"Give sorrow words; the grief that does not speak knits up the o'erwrought heart and bids it break." -William Shakespeare
