Anticipatory grief is the grief you feel before a loss actually happens. It carries its own kind of heartache. And something we don’t talk about enough.
It’s the quiet shadow that arrives long before anything ends.
It follows you through your day, sitting beside ordinary tasks, weaving sadness, anxiety, fear, and guilt through your chest,
making it hard to focus – or even breathe.
It asks you to carry tomorrow while still living today, reshaping small moments and settling into the spaces between your thoughts.
It’s a weight that moves with you, silent but persistent, lingering in the quiet spaces of the days ahead. A sorrow that stretches across time.
