Grief goes through five stages - denial, anger, bargaining, depression, and acceptance. For people with OCD, grief can be far more challenging. "Grief can be uniquely challenging as obsessive thoughts and compulsive behaviors may intensify the emotions. Individuals with OCD might find themselves ruminating excessively on the deceased person or dwelling on perceived past mistakes and missed opportunities. The constant need for reassurance, ritualistic behaviors, and avoidance strategies may escalate, hindering the natural progression through the stages of grief. The persistent doubts and fears inherent in OCD can magnify the already complex emotions associated with loss," wrote Therapist Maythal Eshaghian.(Unsplash)
