- W172816559 abstract "The purpose of this study was to explore the grief experience of people who develop severe and persistent mental illnesses (SPMI). Group members and facilitators of a Grieving Mental Illness group that met at a suburban drop-in center were asked to voluntarily participant in semi-structured, qualitative, in-person interviews. Content analysis was used to find themes in the group member and facilitator interviews. The findings indicated that individuals with SPMI have a unique grief experience that is enhanced by many factors. Group participants expressed having cycling feelings of grief. These feeling were triggered by life events or reminders of the loss they experienced and were affected by outside factors, like negative reactions from family because of the mental illness. Group participants did not identify that they were grieving until they joined the Grieving Mental Illness group, but after addressing areas of grief they were able to accept themselves and their new reality. Facilitators identified the need for acknowledgement that mental illness exists and can cause grief. They also observed that gaining insight for ill individuals into the effects of having a mental illness can take time; connecting with other people can be an important healing component for grief; and feelings of grief cycle throughout a person’s life. Further research as well as grief services for individuals with SPMI diagnosis’ are needed to help individuals process areas of grief. GRIEVING MENTAL ILLNESS: INDIVIDUAL EXPERIENCES OF GRIEF, LOSS, ii Acknowledgements I would like to thank my clinical research chair, Ande Nesmith, for her guidance throughout the development of this clinical research project. Her knowledge and enthusiasm for research helped me develop a focused research project. Her encouragement to go beyond fulfilling a requirement pushed me to ask more questions and to examine an area of grief that needs to be explored. Additionally, I would like to thank my committee members, Diane Bauer and Mandie Kender, for providing feedback on my research project. Their knowledge of grief and mental illness provided insight that expanded my perspective as a researcher. Their experience greatly enhanced my clinical research project. I appreciate their dedication to working with clients and their passion for helping individuals who struggle with grief or mental illnesses. Finally, I would like to thank the facilitators of the Grieving Mental Illness group for first introducing me to the idea that grief is a part of a person’s experience when they develop a mental illness. They are pioneers in the mental health field when it comes to grief and their dedication to being a support for their clients inspires me to continue listening to the experiences my clients bring to the social work relationship.
