     Understanding Grief and Depression

     "Grief is the story of love after loss," says Dr. Katherine Shear, professor of psychiatry at the Columbia University School of Social Work and director of the Center for Complicated Grief. Grief may coincide with or trigger a major depression, but the conditions are different. "Much of what we say about bereavement may well be applicable to other losses," says Dr. Sidney Zisook, distinguished professor of psychiatry at the University of California--San Diego and research scientist with the VA San Diego Healthcare System.

   • Denial. The first stage in this theory, denial helps us minimize the overwhelming pain of loss. As we process the reality of our loss, we are also trying to survive emotional pain.
   • Anger. It is common to experience anger after the loss of a loved one. We are trying to adjust to a new reality and we are likely experiencing extreme emotional discomfort.
   • Bargaining. When coping with loss, it isn't unusual to feel so desperate that you are willing to do almost anything to alleviate or minimize the pain. Losing a loved one can cause us to consider any way we can avoid the current pain or the pain we are anticipating from loss.
   • Depression. During our experience of processing grief, there comes a time when our imaginations calm down and we slowly start to look at the reality of our present situation.

   • Denial. You’re let go from your job, but the next day, you still get up early and start to get ready to head into the office, just in case your boss changes their mind.
   • Anger. “Anger is a perfectly natural response, and in the case of loss, it can be directed at a variety of sources,” Dr. Josell says. It can also manifest as blame — the feeling that someone else is at fault for your loss.
   • Bargaining. The bargaining process sometimes happens before your loss has fully occurred, like when you think, “If I recover from cancer, I promise I’ll start going to go to church every week,” or “If my husband pulls through after his heart attack, I’ll never argue with him again.”
   • Depression. It’s natural to be sad when someone you love dies or when you’ve experienced another major loss. Symptoms of the depression stage of grief can include

   • Denial. Denial refers to the period of grieving during which a person refuses to accept the reality of a situation. Denial is different than not understanding.
   • Anger. Once a person comes to understand the information they received, and accepts the reality of a death, they often experience anger. Anger can be a natural response directed toward oneself, family members, doctors, God, or even the deceased.
   • Bargaining. When we experience grief, we often feel hopeless and overwhelmed. It is common to be overcome by statements of "what if" and "if only," as we experience a loss of control over what is happening.
   • Depression. Depression is a feeling of sadness and hopelessness that often results with the loss of a loved one. While the earlier stages of grief help to protect us from the emotional pain experienced with loss, often these feelings are inevitable.
