The author offers reflection on the question in the title of the article, exploring the psychological, sociological and conceptual dimension of grief. The abuse of the concept of "working through" grief is criticized, as it often ends up being prescribed forcedly. In lieu of "working through" grief, the author values "going through" grief: this is the only way to trigger the ability to turn emptiness into absence, thus allowing the individual to recreate a painful feeling, but at the same time to regain the pleasure of feeling alive.
Keywords: Death, grief, working through grief, loss, depression, bonds
