Grief Can Lead To Cheating

What Is Grief?

Generally speaking grief is an emotional response to the death of a loved one. Very often grief is equated to sadness, though it is not always so simple. Instead, grief often involves a progression of different emotions and reactions that include shock and/or numbness, anxiety, anger and sadness. It may take days, weeks or even years for someone who is grieving to cycle through all of these stages and some people never experience all of these emotions due to a particular loss, or experience some emotions related to one loss but different emotions due to another. This is perfectly normal.

People who are grieving do not necessarily go through the stages in the same order or experience all of them.

The stages of grief and mourning are universal and are experienced by people from all walks of life, across many cultures. Mourning occurs in response to an individual’s own terminal illness, the loss of a close relationship, or to the death of a valued being, human, or animal. There are five stages of grief that were first proposed by Elisabeth Kübler-Ross in her 1969 book On Death and Dying.

Here are the 5 stages of Grief:

• Denial & Isolation
• Anger
• Bargaining
• Depression
• Acceptance

Betrayal is so threatening to marriage and so devastating, many people feel they are losing their minds when they learn that their spouses have been cheating. They can’t eat, sleep, work, think, or function in any substantial way. The loss of a parent, sibling or close friend or, even a job may cause a man or woman to question how they are living their life. Remember, grieving is a personal process that has no time limit, nor one “right” way to do it. A Significant Loss Can Trigger Cheating. Call the Michigan Private Investigators at Eye Spy Detective Agency today at (888) 393 – 7799.
