Scenario

When friends disagree about the value of grief stage frameworks

My closest friend and I have been unpacking how the stages of grief model failed us both when we lost people we loved, but we keep getting stuck because she found some comfort in it and I found it harmful. We want to understand grief better together but we're approaching it from such different places.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

The same model that constrains one person's healing can provide essential structure for another's journey.
