Reactions to death in human experience
In the West, there is a diversity of beliefs, but the predominant beliefs by most citizens are Judeo-Christian in foundation. People in the West react to death in the same ways they react to grief (as in the seven stages of grief ) and the ways people react to substance addiction/abuse rehabilitation. That is to say the tradition in the West is to react to death the ways they react to grief in general and the ways they react to participation in a twelve-step program . The paper will discuss some patterns in thinking and behaving regarding aging and death. Five factors that underlie a person's reactions to aging and death are the sex of the person, the culture of the person, what age the person is when he/she seriously acknowledges and realizes death & aging, the family history of the person, and the lifestyle choice of this person.
