哀傷

The Grief

哀傷是人類自古即有的共同經驗，哀傷的相關理論都在幫助解釋人對失落的反應。Engel(1964)提出如果“失落比喻是傷口，哀傷則是傷口的癒合過程”。每個人哀傷的形式都不相同，在哀傷分期中各階段的情緒反應，並非都必然發生；其發生的次序也可能有所改變。然“完成”個人悲傷過程，先決條件是允許個人以自己的方式和時間去宣洩。在哀傷過程中大膽面對它，不需太多的保護與防衛，從哀傷的經驗中成長！

Grief is a common experience of human beings from ancient times. The theories of grief are help to explain the reactions of people to loss. Engel(1964) said "the experience of the loss to he wound, while the subsequent psychological responses to the loss may be compared to the tissue reaction and processes of healing. "Grieving reation is not quite the same among individuals. Each stage of emotional reaction in the phases of grief may not necessarily occur. The order may also change. But the first priority to "complete" the process of individual's, grief is to allow the individual to uncork by his/her own way and time. We don't need too much protection and defense, but just face the truth bravely and grow up from grieving experiences.
