In the bargaining stage of grief, people tend to negotiate or make deals as a strategy to manage their pain. You may find yourself negotiating with yourself, with people around you, with fate, or with a higher power to try and mitigate or undo your loss. Bargaining is a defense against the feelings of helplessness experienced after a loss. It happens when people struggle to accept the reality of the loss and the limits of their control over the situation.
