Grief isn’t just about sadness; it’s a mix of emotions that can feel overwhelming. Therapist Sophia breaks it down through the lens of the well-known 𝐊𝐮𝐛𝐥𝐞𝐫-𝐑𝐨𝐬𝐬 𝐅𝐢𝐯𝐞 𝐒𝐭𝐚𝐠𝐞𝐬 𝐨𝐟 𝐆𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐟:
1️⃣ 𝗗𝗲𝗻𝗶𝗮𝗹/𝗦𝗵𝗼𝗰𝗸: You might feel numb or like the loss hasn’t happened. It’s the mind’s way of protecting you.
2️⃣ 𝗔𝗻𝗴𝗲𝗿/𝗕𝗹𝗮𝗺𝗲: Frustration and emotional release are normal here, as you try to process the loss.
3️⃣ 𝗕𝗮𝗿𝗴𝗮𝗶𝗻𝗶𝗻𝗴: This phase involves negotiation, where you may think of “what if” scenarios.
4️⃣ 𝗗𝗲𝗽𝗿𝗲𝘀𝘀𝗶𝗼𝗻: Sadness, withdrawal, or even physical symptoms of depression often surface at this stage.
5️⃣ 𝗔𝗰𝗰𝗲𝗽𝘁𝗮𝗻𝗰𝗲: While the pain remains, you begin to adapt and find a way to move forward. 🌈

Grief doesn’t follow a straight path—it’s messy, personal, and unique to each individual.
