complicated grief

Explanation:

In psychology, complicated grief refers to a situation where a person has lost a loved one, but they can't seem to move forward after it. Usually, after experincing a personal loss, people go through a certain period of grief, where they experience profound sadness, sorrow, and even guilt. However, after a certain period of time, these feelings tend to diminish and people come to accept their loss and move on with their lives. However, some people fall into a state where they can't move beyond the sorrow and sadness. When a certain time has passed after the loss, usually between six months and a year, this state is classified as complicated grief. In our case, Pedro is going through complicated grief, as it has been over three years since the death of her wife. Complicated grief can be an extremely debilitating disorder, similar in its effects to depression. Some psychiatry experts have proposed a disorder known as complicated grief disorder, or CGD, which led to it being reviewed and renamed as persistent complex bereavement disorder, pending its acceptance as a mental disorder.
