A favor to ask—we are currently conducting an online study 🧪 of #grieving for those who have had a death #loss between 6 months and 2 years ago—would you be willing to participate?

And pass the survey link to anyone in your networks who might be willing to participate?

The #GrievingBody aspires to #scicomm 🧪: bringing the research on physiological #grief reactions to reader's hands. And by recording the #audiobook, hopefully it brings the meaning of my words uniquely to listeners. #PsychSky #WomeninSTEM #PsychSciSky #BookSky

Everybody grieves differently, but if you are experiencing long-lasting and intense emotions that make it difficult to experience daily life you may be experiencing Prolonged Grief.
