Welcome to the club you never wanted to join.

When someone you love dies, it may seem impossible to know what will happen next and how you will cope. Losing someone in early adulthood, you may feel even more alone, when no-one around you seems to have had the same experience.

Our letters don't have all the answers, but they do have some - because we've been through it ourselves. Some of us have written to ourselves back on that first day of grief, with the reassurance that we will get through those awful first months. Others share snippets from our grief journeys - from the experience of therapy, to the power of getting creative.

Encompassing all types of loss, these stories show that there is no one way to grieve. They talk honestly about grief - the sad, the bad, and the surprisingly beautiful.

Welcome to the Grief Club, we're so glad you've found us.

Making her prime time debut as a new, and winning, coach on talent show The Voice this year, 9x BRIT Award nominee Anne-Marie recently released her much-anticipated second studio album, Therapy. An album title that holds an extremely important message to the Mind Charity ambassador, Anne-Marie continues to campaign for the conversation surrounding mental health.
