Abstract(s)
Partindo do acompanhamento de um grupo de entreajuda
a pais em luto, pretendeu-se sensibilizar todos os
intervenientes sobre o meio de suporte social na evolução
individual do processo de luto.
Entre Janeiro de 2002 e Janeiro de 2003 foi feita a observação
dos encontros mensais de duas horas de um grupo
de entreajuda a pais em luto. Os encontros foram temáticos,
sobre as fases de progressão do luto, moderados
por dois pais com lutos muito experientes, e realizaram-
se em Aveiro. A recolha de dados incluiu a história
de vida e os textos observacionais. Participaram
vinte e um pais, variando entre oito e catorze nos diferentes
encontros, maioritariamente mulheres, com uma
idade média de 52,5 anos. As idades dos filhos perdidos
variaram entre 1 e 35 anos, e a causa de morte foi, maioritariamente,
o acidente rodoviário.
Os pais com lutos menores do que um ano encontraram
no grupo um suporte social de apoio bastante eficaz.
Os pais com lutos superiores registaram sentimentos
contraditórios em relação ao grupo, abandonando-
-o ou permanecendo nele. Os pais que recorreram a medicação
anti-depressiva, desde o início ou no curso do
processo de luto, apresentaram traços comuns de conflito
no desenvolvimento do luto saudável com tendência
para luto não resolvido.
Starting from the accompaniment of a self-helping group for bereavement parents, we intended to encourage the participants through a social support to the individual evolution of grief. Between January 2002 and January 2003 several bereavement parents were observed in monthly meetings of two hours. The discussion was centred in themes about the grieving phases, moderated by two parents with very experienced grief. The meetings occurred in Aveiro. The data collected included the history of life and the texts from observation. Twenty-one parents participated in the group, varying between eight and fourteen in the different meetings, mostly women, with an average age of 52,5 years old. The ages of the lost children varied between 1 and 35 years old, and the cause of death was mostly the accident in road. The parents with recent grief, less than one year, found in the support group an adequate social help. The parents with long grief, more than one year, showed contradictory feelings towards the support group, abandoning or remaining in it. The parents that used anti-depressive medication since the beginning or in the grieving course showed evidences of conflict in the development of the healthy grief with tendency for pathological deviations.
