It’s OK That You’re Not OK: Meeting Grief and Loss in a Culture That Doesn’t Understand
Author: Megan Devine
Overview
When a painful loss or life-shattering event upends your world, here is the first truth to know: there is nothing wrong with grief. As Megan Devine writes, “Grief is simply love in its most wild and painful form. It is a natural and sane response to loss.”
In It’s OK That You’re Not OK, Devine challenges the cultural myths that treat grief as a disease to be cured. Drawing from her experience as both a therapist and a grieving widow, she offers an unflinching, compassionate, and practical approach. Instead of pushing toward “getting over it,” she invites us to honor grief, live alongside it, and build a meaningful life in its presence.
Features
- A New Perspective on Grief: Dispels harmful myths about stages and timetables.
- Compassionate Guidance: Helps grievers manage stress, anxiety, and exhaustion without trying to “fix” the pain.
- Support for Helpers: Includes essays, checklists, and suggestions for comforting others in grief.
- Cultural Critique: Examines why our society dismisses grief—and how we can do better.
Who It’s For
- Individuals navigating grief after loss or life-shattering change.
- Friends and family members who want to support a grieving loved one.
- Counselors, clergy, and professionals seeking to provide compassionate grief support.
- Anyone longing for permission to grieve authentically, without judgment.
