There’s a moment after loss that people don’t talk about much.

It’s not just the sadness.

It’s the confusion.

You look at your life and think:

Why do I feel so different?
Why can’t I think clearly anymore?
Why do I feel flat… or edgy… or numb… or exhausted?

And because no one explains what grief actually does, you quietly wonder if something is wrong with you.

There isn’t.

You’re grieving.

And this book exists to help you understand that - gently, honestly, and without pressure.

This book is for you if:

     - Life hasn’t felt the same since your loss

     - You’re functioning on the outside but struggling on the inside
     - You don’t want to talk about your grief or don’t have the words
     - You’re tired of being told to “be strong” or “give it time”
 

You just want someone to explain what’s happening to you
 

It’s also for friends and family who love someone in grief and want to understand them better without fixing, pushing, or saying the wrong thing.

Spoken grief.
Unspoken grief.
Recent loss or something that happened years ago.

It all belongs here.

What the Heck Just Happened? isn’t about “moving on”.

It’s about making sense of what you’re living through.

This is a calm, human explanation of grief - the parts people don’t prepare you for:

• Why your mind feels foggy 
• Why your emotions feel unpredictable 
• Why you might pull away, shut down, or feel unlike yourself 
• Why time alone doesn’t magically fix it
   

There’s no pressure to dig deep.
No exercises you have to do.
No expectation that you share your story.

You simply read and slowly things start to make sense.

Most people don’t realise this, but understanding grief is often the first moment of relief.

Not because the pain disappears
but because the self-judgement does.

As you read, many people tell me they feel:

• Less confused
• Less alone 
• Less critical of themselves 
• More steady inside

They stop asking “What’s wrong with me?”
And start saying “Oh… that explains so much.”

That shift matters.

This isn’t something you rush through.

It’s the kind of book you open when:

• A wave hits you out of nowhere
• You don’t feel like yourself again
• You need reassurance that you’re not failing at grief
   

You can read it quietly.
In your own time.
With no expectations placed on you.

I wrote this book because I needed it myself and it didn’t exist.

I know grief not just professionally, but personally.
I know the silence. The confusion. The feeling of being changed without being told why.

This book is the explanation I wish someone had given me and said:

“Here. You’re not broken. This will help.”

One session can last an hour.
This book supports you long after.

Read it privately.
Come back to it whenever you need.

If this book isn’t for you, it may be right for someone you love especially someone who doesn’t talk about their grief.

Understanding is often the kindest place to start.
