This grounded theory explains how people navigate the process of loss. The core variable is coming to grips with loss, a basic social process that explains what people are working through when they experience loss of any type. The holistic, systemic view of the process makes it a theory worthy of study by those in helping professions as well as those engaged in self-care. It provides a roadmap to understanding the overall process and may provide a sense of normalcy to the process. People appear to deal with loss in a similar process consisting of discovery of loss, assessment based on one's personal life experiences, and movement through the cyclical, interactive processes of mourning and coping. There are also turning points that help people who may be stuck in some aspect of the process experience a change in perspective that allows them to start moving again. A pattern of cascading losses continued to reveal itself. This is significant in that each newly discovered loss must be evaluated, results in an emotional response, choice of related coping actions, and continually feeds information back to one's personal life experiences. The strength of this theory is in the holistic view it provides. It maps out the beginning, middle, and end of the process and clearly defines goals necessary for completion of the process. Those involved in helping relationships either at the personal, clinical, or community development level may find this theory useful in helping people who are dealing with one of the most common sources of human suffering.
