The five stages of grief, as defined by psychiatrist Elisabeth Kübler-Ross, are denial, anger, bargaining, depression, and acceptance.

1. Denial: This is the initial stage where the individual may refuse to accept the reality of the loss. They may feel shock and disbelief.

2. Anger: In this stage, the individual may experience feelings of frustration, irritation, and anger. They may direct their anger towards themselves, others, or even the person they have lost.

3. Bargaining: During this stage, the individual may try to make deals or negotiate in an attempt to reverse or postpone the loss. They may also seek ways to regain control or make sense of the situation.

4. Depression: This stage involves feelings of sadness, regret, and loneliness. The individual may experience a deep sense of sorrow and may withdraw from others.

5. Acceptance: In the final stage, the individual comes to terms with the reality of the loss. They may find a sense of peace and begin to adjust to life without the person or thing they have lost.

It's important to note that these stages are not necessarily experienced in a linear fashion and individuals may move back and forth between them. Additionally, not everyone may experience all of these stages or may experience them in different ways.
