Everyone tries to break grief down into a list of neat little stages. However, grief doesn\\u2019t always work, or feel that way. Everyone may experience the emotions of grief differently and in a much different order. 

Today we will examine and discuss in detail Dr. Elisabeth Kubler-Ross\\u2019 model of the Five Stages of Grief*. Dr. Kubler-Ross developed this model in 1969. The model includes the stages of:

• (2:05) Overiew Kubler-Ross model
• (4:14) Denial*
• (8:31) Anger*
• (13:01) [Guilt]
• (16:53) Bargaining*
• (19:53) Depression*
• (25:51) Acceptance*
• (31:40) [Control]
• (37:32) [Additional Clinical Lists for Another Time]

While Dr. Kubler-Ross identified 5 particular stages or parts, it is important to realize there are many subsets and emotions for each of these. It is also important to realize grief \\u201cis not linear\\u201d so you may not experience these in this order, or only once. Because Dr. Kubler-Ross developed this model from observing patients experiencing grief, rather than from a personal experience, we don\\u2019t necessarily experience grief in this order. 

There are many links to different pages discussing this model, here are two of them: https://grief.com/the-five-stages-of-grief/ and https://psychcentral.com/lib/the-5-stages-of-loss-and-grief/   Marshall and Steve discuss these topics, as well as a couple more in this episode of Hope Thru Grief.
