Most of us will experience grief at some stage of our lives and although grief is most closely associated with coping with the loss of someone close to us - a spouse, family member, close friend - through death, we also experience grief in response to other losses in life - a job, close relationship, our health. In the preliminary research for the ABC's six part radio series 'Step By Step: Coping With Grief' it became clear to the production team that few people have any preparation for handling grief or are equipped to support family and friends at times of grief and personal loss.
So often the contributors told of feelings which were frightening and painful, odd and even bizarre. With valuable input from bereavement educators and others whose professional work brings them into close contact with people trying to cope with grief, and loss, the series shows that many responses to grief are very normal and part of the process of resolving grief.
The programs include:
- 'Facing Grief'
- 'Two Steps Forward And One Step Back'
- 'Life Goes On'
- 'Getting It All Out'
- 'Difficulties In Resolving Grief
- 'But What Do I Say?'
