How Posting Feelings Can Help

Scroll through the list of possible emotions and choose the ones that best describe how you feel. You may choose emotions that you’ve felt at different times before, during, and after the miscarriage; or you may simply want to choose emotions that you’re feeling right now or have felt in the past several days or weeks.

If you’re having trouble naming your emotions, you may wish to try one of the creative activities. If you’re still unable to get in touch with your emotions, it may help you to talk to members of your support system and request their feedback.

Don’t get discouraged. If you’ve gotten into the habit of pushing down your emotions, it will take a while for you to start feeling them again.

People process their emotions differently. Activities that work for one person may not work for another. Be patient, give yourself time, and remember that you are not alone in your grief after miscarrigae.
