Boundaries are so important. Having worked with people with
PTSD for decades I would add the following. Often in these types of situations the person is yelling at you because you are the nearest object to take out their frustrations. Often they are not yelling about you but rather too you. For your own safety do not engage in a yelling match back. Remain quiet or leave. Physical violence against anything (human, animal, property) is not OK ever. If physical violence is present leave immediately. If it is out of character for the person to be yelling tell them so. Sometimes walking away for even an hour or two can change the situation. Boundaries are just so important, keep them clear, and act accordingly. People do handle grief differently however it is not OK to verbally or physically abuse anyone/thing because of it.

During times of grief, I found understanding different personality types to be extremely helpful, as well.
