"How to Actually Cope With Grief: Personal Stories, Crisis Resources & the Dual Process Model"

Grief part two is here, and this time it's personal. Ashley and Marcella pull back the curtain and share their own grief experiences — from sudden loss and unresolved anger to suicide loss and the grief nobody talks about. They break down the dual process model, explore what community grieving actually looks like, and discuss the kinds of loss society still doesn't take seriously—including body grief, disenfranchised grief, and the grief that comes with loving someone through a crisis. If you've ever felt stuck, ashamed of how you're grieving, or like you should be over it by now—this one's for you. If you or someone you know is struggling, call or text 988.Listener Story Submissions — ⁠[email protected]⁠Links: Kübler-Ross Wave Graph — ekrfoundation.org/5-stages-of-grief/change-curve/HABRI/Zoetis International Pet Owner Survey — https://habri.org/international-hab-survey/Wortman & Silver (1989) — Myths of Coping with Loss — https://www.aldacenter.org/commcms/psychology/_pdfs/social_health/_camille_wortman/Wortman%20and%20Silver%201989%20article.pdfDSM-5-TR Prolonged Grief Disorder criteria — https://www.nctsn.org/sites/default/files/resources/fact-sheet/draft_criteria_for_dam-5-tr_prolonged_grief_disorder_12-06-2019_submitted_for_public_commentary.pdfDoka — Disenfranchised Grief — https://thelossfoundation.org/stages-of-grief/disenfranchised-grief-kenneth-doka-overview/?v=0b3b97fa6688GriefShare — griefshare.orgBonanno's Resilience Model of Grief : thelossfoundation.orgBook: The Other Side of Sadness — George A.
