Grief has been described as the loss of the assumptive world, a violation of the conscious and unconscious assumptions, cognitions, and beliefs that guide our everyday life.
Fear of the pain, fear of the future, and fear of our ability and capacity to face the uncertain without the person we have lost can emerge from grief.
The attachment system is a survival-oriented instinct, and loss of connection can prompt separation and attachment-related distress, signaling a need for restoration.
Healthy grief allows individuals to alternate their attention towards and away from the loss, reflecting a balanced approach in coping with the ongoing pain.
