11 Stages Of Grief For McDreamy's Death On "Grey's Anatomy"

Season 11 of "Grey's Anatomy" messes with all of your emotions. Just when you think things are going right, Shonda Rhimes decides to break our hearts again. McDreamy's death was one unlike any other. You never saw it coming, and you couldn't help but feel for Meredith and the kids. Once again Grey's Anatomy got us in our feelings and here's a few stages of grief we all went through when watching McDreamy's death.

1. Denial.

There is no way McDreamy actually died. Him and Meredith have been through just about everything and they always survive. Always.

2. You are confused beyond measure.

How could this have happened? He was just moving back to Seattle to be with his family. Why would he be dead? It's McDreamy.

3. Despair sets in.

Shonda Rhimes, why would you do this to us? We have been loyal every season.

4. Anger.

There was no warning. There was no indication that he was not going to be on any more seasons. There were no major hints. Where did we go wrong?

5. Sadness.

If there was one character we didn't want to die it would be McDreamy. Who will take the cake for best hair now? Who will have that winning smile?

6. Sadness turns into depression

Do we even keep watching the series? Meredith is alone taking care of three kids. We cried that episode and just about every episode after that.

7. Frustration comes into play.

It's not anger anymore. It is now frustration. We are frustrated that these things keep happening to Meredith and their family and the rest of the cast for that matter. It's like you know something bad is going to happen when the song "How To Save A Life" comes on.

8. The blame game.

You start blaming McDreamy for even leaving in the first place. Oh and that kid who decided to flip his dad's car...you're not on our happy list. McDreamy helped all of you! We can also blame technology for making him reach for his phone.

9. Isolation.

Some people just don't understand the death of your favorite character on a television show. It hits you hard. Unless your friends have also seen it, no one understands what Shonda has put you through.

10. Withdrawal.

We miss McDreamy. We want you back. We need you back. The show will never be the same without you and Meredith and the story behind you two.

11. Acceptance.

If Meredith Grey can tell the doctor who messed up on treating her husband that she is going to be ok, then we are going to be ok. Meredith barely cried after his death. We probably cried enough for her and her whole family. If Meredith Grey can do this, then we can do this.

They find that shirt that’s right in front of you, but just you can’t seem to find.

Thank You on wooden blocks

1. Thank you for being the one I can always count on to be honest.

A true friend will tell you if the shirt is ugly, or at least ask to borrow it and "accidentally" burn it.

2. Thank you for accepting me for who I am.

A best friend will love you regardless of the stale french fries you left on the floor of your car, or when you had lice in 8th grade and no one wanted to talk to you.

Do as I say, not as I do.

Your eyes widen in horror as you stare at your phone. Beads of sweat begin to saturate your palm as your fingers tremble in fear. The illuminated screen reads, "Missed Call: Mom."

Growing up with strict parents, you learn that a few things go unsaid. Manners are everything. Never talk back. Do as you're told without question. Most importantly, you develop a system and catch on to these quirks that strict parents have so that you can play their game and do what you want.

"Friends" maybe didn’t have everything right or realistic all the time, but they did have enough episodes to create countless reaction GIFs and enough awesomeness to create, well, the legacy they did. Something else that is timeless, a little rough, but memorable? Living away from the comforts of home. Whether you have an apartment, a dorm, your first house, or some sort of residence that is not the house you grew up in, I’m sure you can relate to most of these!
