Where's the Grief?

 

It has been acknowledged without dispute that caring for a family member with chronic illness is a grieving experience. The grief can be expressed in many ways and can have a significant impact on the ability to provide care and maintain one's well-being. Grief is most commonly associated with situations where there has been a death. So what happens when people are grieving but nobody has died?  

 

Symptoms of grief mimic depression so commonly, the grief is overlooked and caregivers obtain a diagnosis of depression and a prescription for an anti-depressant to relieve the pain.  Although helpful, the grief remains unresolved, unaddressed. 

 

Awareness of the losses and processing the grief, while difficult is worthwhile. The experience of grief processing taps into a powerful resource for human transformation, empowering in strengthening resiliency, well-being and personal growth.
