Everyone goes through some type of loss. This must be grieved if we are to heal from it.
Grief is an inevitable part of life. For some, it's a relatively quick journey lasting a few months; for others, a journey that may take years to complete. Working through the grief stages is frequently referred to as "grief work."
facing the reality of loss
working through painful memories
experiencing the full range of emotions associated with loss
coping with the situational and lifestyle changes resulting from the loss
adapting to the loss, and reconfiguring their own life
The Stages of Grief
Stage 1: "Acclimation and Adjustment"
Stage 2: "Emotional Immersion and Deconstruction"
Stage 3: "Reclamation and Reconciliation"
Talking about "recovering" from grief is almost disrespectful, as life is never restored to the way it was before the loss of someone close. |
