In this lesson, Dr. Welch says, “There is no right way to grieve.” Do you agree? Have you ever seen someone grieve in a way that you thought was “wrong”? Explain.

There is no way to know how a person will respond to a loss. My mother is up in age and just experiencing life with her during these times is overwhelming. Most of the time I am living by faith and do not know if she is still here or already dead. Letting go of your soul provider, guardian, and/or protector is the hardest thing ever. I can remember when I was a little girl I lost my brother in death, it was the hardest thing in the world to let him go. I carried that grief until I was 20 years old. The only thing canceled that grief was more grief. Today I do not know if that is how grief works but I do know I welcome it lessor and lessor every day of my life.

I’m grieving now. I lost my nephew December 14th of last year by way of homicide. I’m trying to be okay but the pain and depression won’t let up. My sister unfortunately has started to drink more heavily. She lost her only child. She becomes rather mean and volatile when she drinks, which causes a lot of disruption in the family. I understand her pain but not from a mother’s perspective because I don’t have children but the way she treats people and her drunken bouts aren’t the way to behave. As a family we’ve tried to get her professional help in a really nice facility that takes care of everything at no cost but she’s refused the help. Her behavior has become too much to bare. Her actions are hurting herself and others. Depression has definitely set in but she chooses to remain in this state rather than accept the help she’s offered. I believe this is the wrong way to grieve because she’s become a danger to herself. It seems she rather drink and not work than to obtain healing.

Yes, I wholeheartedly agree. I remember when I was very young and my grandfather died. I was laughing and now realize that I didn’t know how to process my feeings.
-
I agree there is no right way to grieve. The right way is the way the person choses to grieve.

Yes.no.feelings aren’t wrong. Grief is personal. It’s okay to have feelings.it is not our place to judge . We need to do our best to walk in Love. If someone is in pain they need a lot of love.we all do.
