Stages ( DABDA )
Bargaining
When something bad happens, have you ever caught yourself making a deal with God?
“Please God, if you heal my husband, I will strive to be the best wife I can ever be – and never complain again.”
Looking ways where you want to regain control or feel like you can affect the outcome of the event
Masking mechanism
Depression
Depression is a commonly accepted form of grief. In fact, most people associate depression immediately with grief – as it is a “present” emotion
In this stage, you might withdraw from life, feel numb, live in a fog, and not want to get out of bed / / ISOLATION / MUST KNOW WHAT TO SAY AND DON'T WHEN PEOPLE AT THIS STAGE / SHARE STORY ON GIRL
Anger
You might look to blame others for the cause of your grief and also may redirect your anger to close friends and family
This is a common stage to think “why me?” and “life’s not fair!”
Defense mechanism
Acceptance
Not in the sense that “it’s okay my husband died” rather, “my husband died, but I’m going to be okay.”
You understand your loved one can never be replaced, but you move, grow, and evolve into your new reality.
Denial
Denial is the stage that can initially help you survive the loss
"I feel OK"
