Loss doesn't always start with a death or a diagnosis. Sometimes it starts in the waiting. The watching. The not knowing what comes next. Sometimes it started years ago and you're still carrying it. The Grief App was built for all of it. Day one or year five. Created by a widow who needed support and couldn't find it. And a grief therapist who knows why — she's the only one in three counties. The Grief App gives you practical tools for the moments when nothing else is available. 2am. A random Tuesday. The anniversary nobody remembered but you. Grief is love with nowhere to go. This is somewhere to put it. Every tool is built around action, not just reflection. Because sometimes doing something is the only way to stay present and process your loss. WHAT'S INSIDE: Grief Wave · When it hits without warning, start the timer. Stay present. Ground yourself in the feeling — wherever you are, whenever you need it. Workbook (Unlock With Subscription) · Real exercises that help you make sense of what you're going through. Something structured when nothing feels structured. Good Moment (Unlock With Subscription) · Grief and joy live together. Capture the moments that prove it. Give Me a Break (Unlock With Subscription) · Step out of your own head for a minute. Available anytime. Even at 2am. Audio Journal (Unlock With Subscription) · For the things that are easier said than written. Just press record. Memory Book (Unlock With Subscription) · A place to put the things you don't want to forget. Keep them. Share them someday, or don't. Grief support that meets you where you are. Available 24/7, even at 2am. Terms of Use: https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/
