In Love With Grief

Three years ago, my husband's little brother died by suicide. This is the first time I've written about the way we healed and continue to heal.

During the month of May, for every story submitted under the #BraveTogether Weekly Writeathon, Wattpad and Maybelline will donate $1 to one of four youth-focused organizations that provide direct support. For more info and how to join, visit wattpad.com/maybelline.

I'm excited to be working with Maybelline this Mental Health Awareness Month to highlight some ways to work through trauma. Many of us have dealt with loss, especially since the start of the pandemic, and it can be a struggle to balance our own feelings of grief with the desire to support others.
