There is help out there for children and adults who experience grief and loss. Take a look at this one for young people between 6 and 18, and speak to your parents if you think this (or another program) is for you.
Seasons for growth is “a program that strengthens the emotional and mental wellbeing of children and young people who are adapting to experiences of change, loss and grief in their lives.”
