Teen Grief's Delayed Reactions-Little Gracie's Experience - pocketboek

Teen grief is different. Adults feel their grief immediately. Teens are unable to feel the intense emotional reactions until later in life. Because of that difference, teens can appear insensitive to adults and feel guilty for not feeling sufficiently miserable. Teens also automatically and unconsciously accept blame for whatever caused the family memberas trauma. This book details the experience of one who did suffer those intense emotional reactions later in life. Different from the authoras first book, Mamaas in HeavenaBut You Can Manage, this book shares the hurt, turmoil, and frustration caused by the sudden loss of two family members at age thirteen. While the first book was written to help teens cope soon after emotional loss, Teen Griefas Delayed ReactionsaLittle Gracieas Experience has been written for adults whose long-term healing includes coping with those intense emotional reactions as they surface.
