What people are saying
The discussions collectively demonstrate a strong consensus that the five stages of grief are unsupported by evidence and potentially harmful, with phrases like 'there are no stages of grief' and calls for 'letting the model die' to emphasize the importance of adopting more accurate ways to understand grieving processes. The tone is often critical or dismissive of the outdated model, showing a clear desire for change and deeper engagement with the scientific critique.
Most discussions strongly agree that the five stages of grief model is scientifically unsupported and potentially harmful. Phrases like 'time to let the five stages die' and 'Kübler-Ross rubbish' reflect this consensus.
Many social discussions are highly interested, as evidenced by the engagement with debates on the scientific validity and harms caused by the stages model. Examples include multiple posts questioning or dismissing the model and advocating for change.
The usage of phrases like 'revisiting the article,' 'discussions emphasize,' and 'call to dispense' shows deep engagement—people are critically analyzing and advocating for abandoning outdated concepts.
The collective weight of discussions indicates a significant impact, pushing for change in healthcare practices and challenging outdated theories like the five stages of grief, which is seen as important for clinical and social understanding.
Abstract in brief
- Healthcare professionals often base grief support on the outdated "stage theory," which suggests that people go through specific, predictable reactions after losing a loved one.
- The stage theory has been criticized for lacking solid scientific evidence, clear concepts, and practical usefulness, and it can even harm those who don't experience grief in the prescribed stages.
- The authors argue that stage theory should be abandoned in favor of alternative models that better capture how grieving actually occurs, and they offer guidelines for moving away from the stage approach in both research and clinical practice.]

@natlouj @jkfillingham @rhian_bishop You're right, stages model has problems because in reality it's not linear, potentially v counterproductive if grieving person assumes it's linear, and perceives themselves as not progressing https://t.co/JIBlIQvlLM
