Grief and Loss

WHAT IS GRIEF and GRIEVING?

GRIEF is  the feeling of deep sorrow or sadness after experiencing the loss of a loved one, or something important.


GRIEVING is the action of feeling the feelings (sorrow, sadness, anger, fear etc.) that accompany processing the grief and loss of a loved one, or something important.

TYPES OF DEATH:

SOCIAL death is the loss of connections to others


PSYCHOLOGICAL death is the loss of personality traits


PHYSIOLOGICAL death is the loss of organ function


BIOLOGICAL death is the loss of a human organism / entity


OTHER TYPES OF LOSS: 


  • death of a loved one
  • the end of a relationship
  • losing a job
  • loss of identity or sense of self
  • loss of hopes or dreams


STAGES OF GRIEF & LOSS:

STAGE 1:  Shock, numbness, disbelief, denial, emotional numbing


STAGE 2:  Processing strong feelings: sadness, sorrow, fear, anger, guilt


STAGE 3: Yearning & searching for the "loss" to return; thinking that it will be there when you wake or come home


STAGE 4: Disorganization and despair; this often includes depression, fatigue, withdrawl and isolation, while trying to adapt to the loss


STAGE 5: Growing acceptance of the loss and reorganizing one's life and moving forward; an attitude that "life must go on" and finding new meaning and purpose


These stages can overlap and vary over time


COMPLICATED GRIEF:

  • sudden & unexpected death
  • survivors of suicide
  • survivors of homicide
  • death of a child

WHAT DOES A GRIEVING SESSION LOOK LIKE?

Ezreena, your grief and loss therapist often uses the Metapsychology tool of "Unblocking" to allow a client to process all thoughts, feelings and physical sensations that have been stored or suppressed. The client then gets to talk about anything and everything that has been attached to the loss - this is a very thorough and unburdening process for the person grieving. 


Often people need to talk their way through the stages of grieving: the shock, the sorrow, the anger, the fear. 


Grieving requires one to feel their feelings and work their way through confusing thoughts and what life will be like moving forward.
