A family crisis will happen. When they do happen we need to know how to deal with it. Hill talks about the ABCX model
A- Actual Event
B-Both Resources and Responses
B-Both Resources and Responses
C-cognitions (Thoughts)
Total EXperience
In each crisis situation you can go to this model. To give a personal example of this my father has lost his jobs multiple times and this is the actual event. The resources my father and my family used at these different times was searching for a job every waking moment of the day. Pray to know where exactly would be the best place for the family. As far as the responses within the family we had to be a little tighter on the money situation. We had to lean on each other to survive the crisis and hope we make it out alive. Cognitions our thoughts on the crisis - it sucks real bad. We just had to have hope and have trust in the Lord that he would lead us where we needed to be and hope that the right people would hire my dad. We had to start fresh each time we moved so new friends, environment, living situation, etc. Total experience I feel like it brought the family closer. We lean on each other in times of crisis. My best friends are my sibilings.
When crisis/stressful things happens we can't dwell on the negative. Be positive. Recognize the untrue thoughts and get rid of them. It is our spirit that tells us what to do. If we think negative thoughts in such severe crisis it will lead individuals to be depressed. One thing to really help someone pull out of depression is to change their thoughts. Find something for that individual to live for and strive for to do better and LOVE life again. Change your thoughts.
