Many practitioners in the field of thanatology have moved to embrace the American Psychiatric Association’s pathologizing of human experience through the Diagnostic & Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders addition of “Prolonged Grief Disorder.” The history of the movement to pathologize grief includes numerous examples of social constructs built on flawed foundations. This workshop will deconstruct three current social constructs (i.e., Inventory of Complicated Grief, Dysfunctional Pandemic Grief Scale, Grief as “Addiction”) and expose the cracks in their assumptions.
