Have you ever felt uncomfortable around someone grieving? Why?

Because grief can make people unpredictable, emotional, and raw — and sometimes we don’t know what to say or do.
Yet discomfort doesn’t have to mean distance. It can be a chance to learn how to truly support someone in pain.

We asked this question on the streets —
and the answers were honest, reflective, and deeply human.

Behind every response was a reminder:
it’s normal to feel unsure, but showing up, listening, and being present matters far more than having the “perfect” words.

Conversations like this matter because understanding our own discomfort can help us be a better support…
and can help those grieving feel less alone.

Grief after su***de is different.
