Coping with Crisis Depending on a family’s viewpoint and
resources, many different kinds of events are apt to become crises.
Crisis-provoking events are called stressor events.
![Page 7: Chapter 14 Family Crises. Chapter Outline Coping with Crises Death in the Family Accidents, Injuries, and Catastrophic Illness Family Violence](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062221/56649e025503460f94aed79d/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Types of Stressor Events • Internal - Events that arise from
someone inside the family, such as alcoholism, suicide, or running for election.
• External - Events that arise outside the family, such as earthquakes, terrorism, the inflation rate, or cultural attitudes toward women and minorities.
![Page 8: Chapter 14 Family Crises. Chapter Outline Coping with Crises Death in the Family Accidents, Injuries, and Catastrophic Illness Family Violence](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062221/56649e025503460f94aed79d/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Types of Stressor Events • Normative - Events that are expected
over the family life cycle, such as birth, launching a young adult, marriage, aging, or death.
• Nonnormative - Events that are unexpected, such as winning a lottery, getting a divorce, dying young or war.
![Page 9: Chapter 14 Family Crises. Chapter Outline Coping with Crises Death in the Family Accidents, Injuries, and Catastrophic Illness Family Violence](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062221/56649e025503460f94aed79d/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Types of Stressor Events • Ambiguous - The facts are so unclear
that you’re not even sure that the crisis is happening to you and your family.
• Nonambiguous - Clear facts are available about the event: what is happening, when, how long, and to whom.
![Page 10: Chapter 14 Family Crises. Chapter Outline Coping with Crises Death in the Family Accidents, Injuries, and Catastrophic Illness Family Violence](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062221/56649e025503460f94aed79d/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Types of Stressor Events • Volitional - Events that are wanted and
sought out, such as a freely chosen job change, a college entrance, or a wanted pregnancy.
• Nonvolitional - Events that just happen, such as being laid off or the sudden loss of someone loved.
![Page 11: Chapter 14 Family Crises. Chapter Outline Coping with Crises Death in the Family Accidents, Injuries, and Catastrophic Illness Family Violence](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062221/56649e025503460f94aed79d/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Types of Stressor Events • Chronic - A situation that has long
duration, such as diabetes, chemical addiction, or racial discrimination.
• Cumulative - Events that pile up, one right after the other, so there is no resolution before the next one occurs.
![Page 12: Chapter 14 Family Crises. Chapter Outline Coping with Crises Death in the Family Accidents, Injuries, and Catastrophic Illness Family Violence](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062221/56649e025503460f94aed79d/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Types of Stressor Events Acute - An event that lasts a short time
but is severe, such as breaking a limb, losing a job, or flunking a test.
Isolated - An event that occurs alone, at least with no other events apparent at that time. It can be pinpointed easily.
![Page 13: Chapter 14 Family Crises. Chapter Outline Coping with Crises Death in the Family Accidents, Injuries, and Catastrophic Illness Family Violence](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062221/56649e025503460f94aed79d/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Stress Leads to Success?• Research has found that moderate stress,
especially during childhood, may be related to later achievement.
• In a study of 400 famous individuals from the twentieth century, it was found that 3/4 were troubled as children and that 1/4 faced physical disability or difficulty.
![Page 14: Chapter 14 Family Crises. Chapter Outline Coping with Crises Death in the Family Accidents, Injuries, and Catastrophic Illness Family Violence](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062221/56649e025503460f94aed79d/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Responses to Stress General-adaptation Syndrome:
1. Alarm
2. Resistance
3. Recovery or exhaustion
![Page 15: Chapter 14 Family Crises. Chapter Outline Coping with Crises Death in the Family Accidents, Injuries, and Catastrophic Illness Family Violence](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062221/56649e025503460f94aed79d/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Alarm Reaction• Physical and psychological changes are
experienced. • These changes are controlled by the
sympathetic or parasympathetic nervous systems.
• These two systems usually operate in opposition to each other; that is, if one system activates a response, the other counteracts the response.
![Page 16: Chapter 14 Family Crises. Chapter Outline Coping with Crises Death in the Family Accidents, Injuries, and Catastrophic Illness Family Violence](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062221/56649e025503460f94aed79d/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Resistance
• During this stage, various physical
responses appear to return to normal,
because the body has built up resistance
to the stress.
![Page 17: Chapter 14 Family Crises. Chapter Outline Coping with Crises Death in the Family Accidents, Injuries, and Catastrophic Illness Family Violence](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062221/56649e025503460f94aed79d/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Exhaustion or Recovery During this stage, exhaustion occurs if
the original symptoms return. The person often becomes physically ill.
On the other hand, if the stress has been reduced to a tolerable level, the symptoms do not come back and recovery ensues.
![Page 18: Chapter 14 Family Crises. Chapter Outline Coping with Crises Death in the Family Accidents, Injuries, and Catastrophic Illness Family Violence](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062221/56649e025503460f94aed79d/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)

Steps in Crises Management
1. Describe the event in realistic terms and determine whether it is a crisis for you, your family, or your friend.
2. Examine your emotions and reactions to the crisis situation.
3. Seek support and help from friends and family.
4. Consider all possibilities and take decisive action to resolve the crisis.
![Page 22: Chapter 14 Family Crises. Chapter Outline Coping with Crises Death in the Family Accidents, Injuries, and Catastrophic Illness Family Violence](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062221/56649e025503460f94aed79d/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Therapy• Therapy is a broad term used to describe
actions taken to cure or solve any problem. • Taking an aspirin is therapy for a headache. • Counseling from a hospice after the death of a
loved one is therapy. • Many groups and organizations help individuals
cope with crises in their lives.
![Page 23: Chapter 14 Family Crises. Chapter Outline Coping with Crises Death in the Family Accidents, Injuries, and Catastrophic Illness Family Violence](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062221/56649e025503460f94aed79d/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Defending Against Harmful Stress
• Coping devices are ways of handling or dealing with stress, frustration, pain, fear, anxiety, and any other problems arising from stressful situations.
• Anxiety is a generalized fear, without a specific object or source.
![Page 24: Chapter 14 Family Crises. Chapter Outline Coping with Crises Death in the Family Accidents, Injuries, and Catastrophic Illness Family Violence](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062221/56649e025503460f94aed79d/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Progressive Relaxation1. Assume a comfortable position, in a quiet
environment and with eyes closed. 2. Breathe deeply. 3. Relax each muscle in the body, starting with
the feet and working up to the neck and face.4. Maintain a quiet attitude, let thoughts come
and go, allow relaxation to proceed at its own pace.
5. Remain relaxed for 15 to 20 minutes.
![Page 25: Chapter 14 Family Crises. Chapter Outline Coping with Crises Death in the Family Accidents, Injuries, and Catastrophic Illness Family Violence](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062221/56649e025503460f94aed79d/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Defense Mechanisms
• Defense mechanisms are the methods an individual uses to deny, excuse, change, or disguise behaviors that cause stress or anxiety.
• They are unconscious, unlike the coping strategies.
![Page 26: Chapter 14 Family Crises. Chapter Outline Coping with Crises Death in the Family Accidents, Injuries, and Catastrophic Illness Family Violence](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062221/56649e025503460f94aed79d/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Positive Uses of Defense Mechanisms
1. Defense mechanisms can give time to adjust to a problem that might at first be overwhelming.
2. Defense mechanisms may lead to experimentation with new roles.
![Page 27: Chapter 14 Family Crises. Chapter Outline Coping with Crises Death in the Family Accidents, Injuries, and Catastrophic Illness Family Violence](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062221/56649e025503460f94aed79d/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Commonly Used Defense Mechanisms
1. Repression is an unconscious blocking of whatever is causing stress and frustration.
2. Displacement is a straightforward substitution of a less-threatening behavior for another.
3. Rationalization involves finding an excuse for a behavior that is causing trouble.
![Page 28: Chapter 14 Family Crises. Chapter Outline Coping with Crises Death in the Family Accidents, Injuries, and Catastrophic Illness Family Violence](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062221/56649e025503460f94aed79d/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Commonly Used Defense Mechanisms
4. Projection is a defense mechanism whereby one’s own characteristics or impulses are imposed upon others.
5. Sublimation involves converting a socially unacceptable impulse into a socially acceptable activity.
6. Compensation allows a person to make up for a shortcoming in one area by becoming successful in another area.
![Page 29: Chapter 14 Family Crises. Chapter Outline Coping with Crises Death in the Family Accidents, Injuries, and Catastrophic Illness Family Violence](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062221/56649e025503460f94aed79d/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Scapegoating• Projection is the major psychological
mechanism used in scapegoating, whereby a person or group is blamed for the mistakes or crimes of another.
• Scapegoating may also be evident when a person or group is blamed for some misfortune that is due to another cause.
![Page 30: Chapter 14 Family Crises. Chapter Outline Coping with Crises Death in the Family Accidents, Injuries, and Catastrophic Illness Family Violence](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062221/56649e025503460f94aed79d/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Ambiguous LossTwo kinds:
1. In the first, people are physically absent but psychologically present, because it is unclear whether they are dead or alive. • Missing soldiers and kidnapped persons
illustrate this type of loss.2. The second type is when a person is
physically present but psychologically absent, such as people with Alzheimer’s disease, addictions or who are in a coma.

Advantages of Military Life• The entire military acts as a surrogate family. • The goals of the military are similar, thus
contributing to a high degree of camaraderie. • Housing or an allowance is provided, which
