Mixed-Faith Grief

Ongoing grief experienced in relationships divided by belief.

• You mourn emotional closeness that no longer exists.

• Your conversations can feel restricted or guarded.

• You feel unseen or misunderstood in your growth.

Potential clinical implications (especially in high control settings)

• This grief often has no clear endpoint or social acknowledgment.

• Loneliness may exist even within ongoing relationships.

• Naming the grief can support self-compassion and clarity.
