a. Numbing
b. Yearning and searching
c. Disorganization and despair
d. Reorganization
C
During the phase of disorganization and despair an individual spends much time thinking about how and why the loss occurred. The person often expresses anger at anyone he or she believes to be responsible. In the numbing phase, a person has periods of extremely intense emotion and reports feeling "stunned" or "unreal." The yearning and searching phase evokes emotional outbursts, tearful sobbing, and acute distress. To move forward, people need to experience this painful phase of grief. During the final phase of reorganization, which usually requires a year or more, the person accepts unaccustomed roles, acquires new skills, and builds new relationships.
