When couples process anger about others' grief stage expectations

My husband and I are both reading books that critique the stages of grief but we can't figure out what to do with all this anger we feel toward the therapists and friends who kept asking us where we were in the process after our miscarriage. We want to move forward but we're stuck in rage about how we were treated.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

Sometimes the secondary trauma of having your grief misunderstood requires its own healing before you can address the original loss.

Worth thinking about

“Where Are You with The stages of grief — examined and critiqued?”
