This adaptation is usually known as the Kübler-Ross Change Curve. It extends the five core stages of grief to seven overlapping stages:
Shock. Intense and sometimes paralyzing surprise at the loss.
Denial. Disbelief and the need to look for evidence to confirm the loss.
Anger and frustration. A mix between acknowledgment that some things have changed and anger toward this change.
Depression. Lack of energy and intense sadness.
Testing. Experimenting with the new situation to discover what it actually means in your life.
Decision. A rising optimism about learning how to manage the new situation.
Integration. Acceptance of the new reality, reflection on what you learned, and stepping out in the world as a renewed person.
