Letter to the Deceased
The oldest grief intervention we have
Writing to the person who died is one of the oldest and most-tested grief interventions. This letter is for you, not them. It doesn't have to be sent, shown, or perfect.
What I need to say
Anything — love, anger, questions, thanks, apologies, updates
What I imagine them saying back
What I'm keeping from this letter
Anger belongs here too
Grief that can't hold anger is grief that stays stuck. If the letter is furious, it's working.
