Product Description

Product Description

This self-help guide concentrates on grief after bereavement and describes five tasks to be worked through in order to come to terms with grief, and in wider terms value life more. The five tasks come under two headings - three acceptance tasks and two resistance tasks. The acceptance tasks are: accept the full reality of what has happened; accept the need for an increased committment to life; and accept the need for help. The resistance tasks are: resist isolation; and resist dependence. Specific help is also included for those suffering from grief after sudden loss, suicide, or the death of a child or a parent. The book also offers help for those who know they are dying, both adults and children.

4.0 out of 5 stars A useful book for those struggling through their grief, 5 Jun 2002
By A Customer
This book is a useful guide for those dealing with grief, especially if they are at a stage where they feel it is time to move on and live normally, but are not sure how to do so. Also, if you are in earlier stages of grieving the book is designed to help you through each stage and to understand your feelings. I think this book is very good and gives the person grieving a lot to think about. It also looks at special kinds of grief, such as loss of a parent and grief after a suicide, sudden death or long- term illness. It is aimed not only at people grieving, but also at those helping some one to grieve. My only criticism is that the bulk of the book, whilst trying to be generalised seems aimed at the loss of a partner, which makes those who have lost different family members or friends feel a little excluded at times. None the less a useful guide for a wide range of people, in a simple style. I recommend you read it slowly, as there is a lot to take in and a lot to reflect on.

5.0 out of 5 stars Grief, 3 Aug 2009
By V. A. Wall (Ireland) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I found this book extremely helpful when I read it 3 weeks after my 31 sister's tragic death through suicide. It really named and explained what I was feeling and going through and really helped me understand the process of(and therefore survive) grief.
I couldn't recommend it enough to anyone going through a very painful time through grief. I believe it was a turning point for me.
