Beyond troubled and untroubled positions - an intersectional analysis of siblings who are bereaved by drug-related deaths' meaning-making stories about their deceased brothers and sisters.

Purpose: This study investigates how social categories work and intersect in siblings bereaved by drug-related deaths' (DRDs) stories about their relationships to their deceased brother or sister. The sociocultural embedded process of making meaning of the relationship with the deceased individual is essential in adapting to the loss. However, insight into such experiences of siblings bereaved by a DRD is scarce.
