#hpm
Wed May 4 18:12:08 PDT 2011
CompAndChoices GREAT question. RT @nursefriendly: At what point does grief become
pathological? #HPM
Wed May 4 18:12:08 PDT 2011
nursefriendly Are you talking about a group of symptoms, or severity of a single?
@drbeckershutte T1 Complicated Grief Symptoms. #HPM

SheyontheBay RT@nursefriendly:Grief like Joy, natural emotions we all experience as a matter of

Wed May 4 18:12:57 PDT 2011
PracticalWisdom T1: In the past worked in the Mental Health Field. just pulled one of my Fav books.
Caring for the mind. Classic but not current 1995 #hpm
Wed May 4 18:13:20 PDT 2011
DrBeckerSchutte @nursefriendly I think that one sx can be severe enough to justify treatment, or a
cluster of sx can be persistently difficult. #hpm
Wed May 4 18:13:43 PDT 2011
CompAndChoices What I'm wondering is: why wouldn't "pathological" grief simply be classified as
"depression", rather than a different disorder? #hpm
Wed May 4 18:13:59 PDT 2011
MatthewsMichele Me too! RT @drbeckerschutte: So jealous of the sushi tweeting! #hpm
Wed May 4 18:14:03 PDT 2011
SheyontheBay T1 - or does it all come down to $$$$ - reimbursement for grief support to mitigate
becoming pathological? #hpm
Wed May 4 18:14:09 PDT 2011
drbeckerschutte Let me clarify that I don't think all grief qualifies for this--just grief that is prolonged
or incapacitating, which is subjective. #hpm
Wed May 4 18:14:27 PDT 2011
renee_berry @MatthewsMichele @CompAndChoices @nursefriendly I used to train volunteers
on this often because "prolonged depression" was always a Q #hpm
Wed May 4 18:14:49 PDT 2011
nursefriendly @drbeckerschutte How would grief differ from say "depression, anger" which are
frequently cause by the same situations? Death, Loss etc #HPM
Wed May 4 18:15:04 PDT 2011
EldrcareConsult Helllloooo all! #hpm
Wed May 4 18:15:08 PDT 2011
DrBeckerSchutte @SheyontheBay I think that it could also be about making sure that folks with
complicated grief have access to services. #hpm
Wed May 4 18:15:13 PDT 2011
MatthewsMichele Have to say-I feel like medicalizing grief totally negates raw human emotion and
response to loss and don't think its appropriate! #hpm
Wed May 4 18:15:38 PDT 2011
renee_berry T1 What is prolonged depression in the context of grief? Does it feel prolonged to
you? If yes, then it is, support will help. #hpm
Wed May 4 18:15:40 PDT 2011

6. MatthewsMichele Welcome @EldrcareConsult! #hpm
Wed May 4 18:15:52 PDT 2011
SheyontheBay @drbeckerschutte @SheyontheBay dont they already? Under ICD codes
depression/adjustment disorder? #hpm
Wed May 4 18:16:30 PDT 2011
PracticalWisdom T1: Says symptoms lasting longer than 2 months after the loss of a loved one.
Wish @MarkSmithMD @Miller7@DocForeman @susangiurleo Here #hpm
Wed May 4 18:16:32 PDT 2011
nursefriendly I'm wondering why grief should be classified as a new "diagnosis" when it
frequently overlaps with so many other established diagnoses. #HPM
Wed May 4 18:16:38 PDT 2011
DrBeckerSchutte @MatthewsMichele The issue that I struggle with is that folks who need insurance
to access care/support--is that medicalizing grief? #hpm
Wed May 4 18:17:16 PDT 2011
swan5675 RT @nursefriendly: Im wondering why grief should be classified as a new
"diagnosis" when it frequently overlaps with so many other #hpm
Wed May 4 18:17:24 PDT 2011
DrBeckerSchutte @nursefriendly True--I often use adjustment DO categories or depression
categories depending on presentation #hpm

PracticalWisdom RT @nursefriendly:Im wondering ? grief should b classified new "diagnosis" when
it frequently overlaps w/ so # other established diagn. #hpm

renee_berry @MatthewsMichele I wouldn't call it inappropriate if it's helpful in finding ways to
help people (in a clinical back scenes way) #hpm
Wed May 4 18:17:50 PDT 2011
PracticalWisdom T1: Feel confident others will answer. #hpm
Wed May 4 18:18:11 PDT 2011
nursefriendly Access can be provided without a new dx. RT @drbeckerschutte: @SheyontheBay I
think that it could also . ,. . . access to services. #HPM
Wed May 4 18:18:18 PDT 2011
swan5675 T1 Ah, yes....some things must be done in the name of reimbursement #hpm
Wed May 4 18:18:22 PDT 2011
jen_c_taylor I wonder why the DSM-IV diagnosis of "adjustment disorder" was not sufficient for
DSM-V researchers 4 those living w/ prolonged grief? #HPM
Wed May 4 18:18:47 PDT 2011
renee_berry T1 I think it's also really important to remember that grief is not exclusive to our
experience of death, it's a part of all loss #hpm
Wed May 4 18:18:47 PDT 2011

7. DrBeckerSchutte T1: Does making it a diagnostic category mean that people will feel more or less
empowered to seek support? #hpm
Wed May 4 18:18:51 PDT 2011
EldrcareConsult Great idea @Practicalwisdom #hpm
Wed May 4 18:18:58 PDT 2011

this might impact career. Know Privacy but U know. #hpm

exclusive to ... death, its a part of all loss #hpm
Wed May 4 18:19:50 PDT 2011
MatthewsMichele @drbeckerschutte I think it will make people feel jusged and less likely to seek
support, which is why I say inappropriate. #hpm

renee_berry @PracticalWisdom it may impact their career even if it's not diagnosed... & same
applies to students & academic engagement #hpm

excuses to prescribe for something "new" which is not. #HPM
Wed May 4 18:21:53 PDT 2011
