Closure and What To Do if You Don't Get It

Whether it's a romantic relationship, friendship, loss of job or even a death, some people can't move forward without closure but is it something that we really need? And what happens if we don't get it? Joining Bridget to answer your questions on closure is Melbourne based psychologist Chris Cheers, who is also the author of "The New Rulebook: Notes from a psychologist to help redefine the way you live". Hear Chris unpack the concept of closure and why we feel like we must seek it, as well as the link to confirmation bias and schemas, PLUS the one thing he thinks is the true cause of relationship breakdowns and why we need to rethink our labelling of emotions.
