When support groups develop conflicting needs over time

My grief support group started as a really meaningful space but lately it feels like some people are stuck in their pain in ways that are pulling the whole group down. A few of us have been moving forward in our healing and now there's this weird tension between different stages of grief that's making meetings feel uncomfortable for everyone.
