OVERDOSE SOLUTIONS 2013 CHALLENGING OUR ASSUMPTIVE ROLES AS CAREGIVERS IN OVERDOSE Susan Wesner, RN MSN CS Psychiatric Clinical Nurse Specialist, Western Psychiatric Institute and Clinic of UPMC

Wounded Healers  Caregivers are also grievers  Facing your own losses  Our woundedness makes us helpful  Making time to honor our losses  Caregivers mourning their losses

Appropriate Expectations in Grief The loss will resurrect old issues, feelings, and unresolved conflicts from the past. You will have some identity confusion as a result of this major loss and the fact that you are experiencing reactions that may be quite different to you. You may have a combination of anger and depression, such as irritability, frustration, annoyance or intolerance You will feel some anger and guilt, or at least some manifestations of these emotions.

Appropriate Expectations in Grief You may have a lack of self-concern You may experience grief spasms, acute upsurges of grief that occur suddenly with no warning You will have trouble thinking (memory, organization, and intellectual processing) and making decisions You may feel like you are going crazy You may be obsessed with death and be preoccupied with the deceased

Grief and Mourning (Rando) Assumptive world: 1.Expectations about the world in general (God is good, the world is fair, etc) 2.Assumptions about people (I will be supported) When a loved one dies, one’s assumptive world is shattered. Philosophical questions asked, i.e." How could God do this to me?” Expectations are violated. Caregivers must deal not with the death of a loved one, but with the assumptive world of the griever

Disenfranchised Grief Grief experienced when loss cannot be openly acknowledged, socially sanctioned or publicly shared. Reasons: Relationship is not socially defined or accepted Griever not recognized as able to mourn

Factors Related to Traumatic Death Sudden and lack of anticipation Violent, mutilation, and destruction Preventability and/or randomness Multiple deaths Death of a child Survivor’s personal encounter with death (Rando, 1994)

William Worden (1982) Accept the reality of the loss Experience the pain of the loss Readjust the environment Reinvest emotional energy in other relationships

Maslow’s “Basis Hierarchy of Human Needs” Basic needs/Survival needs Safety and Security Cognitive functioning (activities of daily living) Love and Belongingness Intellectual and Spiritual growth Self Actualization
