This thread is amazing, and prompted me to stop lurking because I haven't had the guts to really tell anyone - I just had a miscarriage last month. I don't even know what I'd want to say about it other than it happened, and I've been bizarrely emotional ever since. Only a nursing friend even knows it happened. She advised me about what to do and confirmed what it was, and I'm torn up about it enough to not tell anyone in person.
I'm really grateful a thread like this exists, because I really needed to say that to someone somewhere and I know the Simmers of the world are sympathetic and lovely creatures. I really hope this comment finds you all healthy and at least relatively happy. I have a quote I agree with as cheesy as quotes are to put forward in the spirit of positivity:
"Happiness is not a mindset, it's a constant decision making process. Be unhappy that so-and-so said such-and-such, at the general negativity of the world and it's contradictory hazards. Or instead be happy that you ate that food you really like, that you got to spend an extra hour in sweatpants, or that your pet is so cute. It's a choice you have to keep making again and again." - Guy named Robert
Seriously, thanks for this venting moment you lot.
