Grief Quiz

Grief Quiz

This self-check can help you reflect on sadness, longing, numbness, adjustment, emotional waves, and changes after a loss. Grief is not a disorder, and this is not a diagnosis.

Important: If grief includes thoughts of suicide, self-harm, not wanting to live, or feeling unable to stay safe, please seek immediate support. In the U.S., call or text 988, contact local emergency services, or reach out to someone you trust.

I miss the person, relationship, role, pet, place, or life I lost.





Some days I function, and other days grief feels much heavier.





Reminders, anniversaries, memories, songs, places, or objects can bring strong emotions.





I have trouble accepting that the loss is real, even if part of me knows it happened.





My sleep, appetite, energy, or concentration has changed since the loss.





I feel more isolated, misunderstood, or disconnected from others.





I may avoid reminders of the loss, or I may feel drawn to them often.





I struggle with guilt, regret, unfinished conversations, or things I wish had been different.





Grief affects my work, relationships, parenting, school, or daily routines.





I want support making space for grief while continuing to live my life.
