Abstract

Adjustment disorder related to bereavement (ADRB) is a condition that may develop after a loss, does not resolve over time, and requires clinician intervention. This article investigates the personal factors that influence response to loss and explores the relationship between coping mechanisms and the development of ADRB. Clinical features, diagnosis, and treatment options are discussed for use in primary care.
