Answer: C - Chronic grief is a type that is excessive and prolonged in nature.

A person suffering from chronic grief suffers from an excessive and prolonged sense of pain and loss. If a person’s grief over the loss of a loved one becomes chronic in nature, therapy may be an appropriate suggestion. Prolonged grief is an aspect of grief that is chronic nature. Acute grief occurs immediately after a loss and subsides eventually over time whereby complex grief interferes with the natural healing process.
