Abstract
We report a case that we practiced a grief care by the team, who are in bereaves state because of the family suicide and considered about supporting the natural grief work. In this case, she could not follow the normal grieving process of her eldest son's suicide. She showed a variety of PTSD symptoms, and was treated with multidrug therapy. The reason why we felt the importance of psychological intervention was because of her wandering in the midnight and refuge from suicide attempts. Because she could not organize her feelings, including the feeling of self-condemnation, we felt the need of psychological intervention. There is the psychotherapy, which could be effective to complicated grief and PTSD. Also, the importance of psychological education has been demonstrated. There has been an improvement in the symptoms by conducting the division roles in the implementation to the grief care of the team. We could support the natural grief work by practicing semi-structured grief care with team to the family, who are in the situation of complicated grief, bereaves state to the self-death.
