Today I talk to Lyndsey Vansickle about going through a miscarriage and dealing with depression. She tells about what she has experienced and why it’s so hard for someone to go through, and then how she was able to use writing as a means to express herself and cope with the intense grief she experienced. Many struggle today with the pressures of society or their own community and when they don’t live up to the community standards, the weight of not measuring up can really weigh down on a person. Learning to accept yourself for who you are and be OK with being you is one of the most important things you can do to be happy.

“Let yourself feel what you wanted it to be and what you thought it would be. A big one is with divorce. I have quite a few friends, it’s like, ‘Of course you had your ideas of things. How it would be, what you were hoping.’ and I think it’s such a great thing to let yourself feel all of that. That’s a huge form of grief that’s just as real as any other grief to a lot of people.” 23:04
