Understanding Prolonged Grief Disorder with Dr. Debra Kissen 🌟

Dr. Debra Kissen from Light On Anxiety delves into the intricacies of Prolonged Grief Disorder (PGD). This condition surpasses the normal grieving period, making it challenging for individuals to reconnect with their lives and experience joy 🌼. Symptoms include a persistent sense of sadness, disengagement from daily activities, and avoidance behaviors that keep the grief in check. Dr. Kissen discusses how treatment involves confronting the pain and learning to move forward while honoring the memory of the loved one.

👉 Dr. Kissen explains how ruminating on feelings of anger and frustration, continually reviewing how hard it is to live without the person, and avoiding closure behaviors can lock individuals into a prolonged state of grief. She also sheds light on the treatment methods that help individuals make contact with the pain and learn to move through it, ultimately finding a way to hold onto the memory of the loved one while continuing to live a meaningful life.

Individuals with PGD experience enduring symptoms of sadness, emptiness, and disbelief, which significantly impair daily functioning. Treatment involves confronting the pain and learning to move forward while still cherishing the memory of the loved one. This condition often requires professional intervention to help individuals move forward with their lives.
