Answer: Successful completion of a grieving process is indicated by an acceptance of loss and recovery of lost functions.
Explanation:
<em>Grief</em> comes with a number of reactions mostly peculiar to the individual experiencing it. Despite the peculiarity of response, there are common emotions such as <em>denial, anger, depression, guilt and a decreased ability to perform usual tasks</em> that a griefing person battles with.
The most effective response to grief is an <em>acceptance and acknowledgement of the need to speak up about the emotions being experienced.</em>
Recovery from grief does not happen all at once. It is a gradual process depending on the approach and state of mind of the individual experiencing it.
When recovery happens, lost functions are generally back to normal including <em>investing in personal life, embracing new roles and ideas, optimism in career and a will to even get on with a new romantic relationship in due time.</em>
