Kubler-Ross’s model
I agree with you that Kubler-Ross’s model possesses flaws, but it gives us great insight into stages that people undergo once death strike within. Yes, people’s process of healing may not follow the steps as outlined, but such stages were discussed separately as a phase that we can undergo independently or continuously until we reach the acceptance stage. I think what is most required now is a model that will help us to reach the last stage of acceptance in a fast and reasonable way. Dwelling much on the aspect of the model can make us lose focus on which it was intended. Once we agree that the model was developed with the idea making us internalize the message and find the solution to the despair feelings prevalent after the loss of our loved ones, the faster we will devise a mechanism to tackle these challenges.
