John Travolta tragically lost his son recently. Losing a child is one of the most painful events one can experience. We all have loss and it can be very painful. I have a friend who had a loss through a divorce and loss in not being able to spend the time he desired with his children.

Family members can all be impacted by loss and grief. It is important to address grief and loss. Loss and grief should not be: pushed aside, repressed, stuffed, ignored etc.
We ALL will experience grief and loss at some point in life. Loss of a dog or a friend. Loss of a grandparent etc.

It is important to process grief and loss so it does not ooze out into unhealthy behaviors like: loss of sleep, drug use, alcoholism, anger, violence, physical somatic symptoms, depression, anxiety, stress, and more.

John Travolta is going through grief and loss counseling with his family per an article I read in the AZ Republic today. I am glad he is obtaining support this is a positive way to go about grief and loss.
