Support groups, where people come together and share the common bond of experience, can be invaluable in helping you and your grief and supporting your need to mourn long after the event of the death&#8221;<\/i><\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">In our fast paced society, people who have had a significant loss are often expected to be \u2018over it\u2019 in a matter of a few weeks. They may even expect this of themselves. In reality, it may take years for someone to work through his or her grief.
