When dealing with grief, individuals deal with the immediate emotions of the loss itself but at the same time, the pain of dealing with secondary losses. Unfortunately, life does not stop while grieving, so the dual process model addresses how a person faces both fronts of loss while grieving. One must face how one is dealing with one’s own pain as well as dealing with life itself.
