18. Stages of Grief: Denial

18. Stages of Grief: Denial

This episode, which will be the first in a series, will discuss the stages of grief. There are five stages, and I can truly see how I went through each one on my own. Denial will thus be the first topic we discuss today. Denial is the refusal to accept something's unpleasant actuality or truth. Losing a loved one is thus an unpleasant reality for us. Denial, in fact, can have an impact on you in any circumstance. However, I'm here to discuss grief. And that is what we will refer to it in relation to.

“Short term denial could be where you are just protecting yourself. But you're gathering yourself, you're putting yourself back together. And you're trying to learn a way of accepting the new life you have to live. So for me, it was getting myself back together, putting little pieces back, gathering my thoughts and then learning how I was going to now live my life without my mother and my father.”

In this episode, I will talk about:

  • What is Denial?
  • How denial is like a defense mechanism.
  • When you’re in this stage, it’s not healthy to live in forever
