Unprocessed grief is when someone doesn't go through the important stages of grieving. Instead of acknowledging and accepting their emotions, they may try to ignore them or numb them in unhealthy ways. This can lead to a lot of problems in relationships. When someone doesn't process their grief, it can be difficult for them to communicate well. They may struggle to express their thoughts and feelings, which can lead to misunderstandings and conflict.
