Complicated grief is the medical term for someone who grieves for months or years after the beloved has died and does not move on with the stages of grief.    The grief is just as strong as when the day their beloved died.   Granted, grief is a very individual process and everyone needs their own span of time to grief.  The kind of grief we’re talking about here is unhealthy grief, when it consumes your life almost like an obsession.  Treating complicated grief is dicey at best.

Now, a UCLA study suggests that there may be a physical and potentially treatable reason for complicated grief.  The complete study was published in the journal NeuroImage.
