About the Book

It's OK That You're Not OK: Meeting Grief and Loss in a Culture That Doesn't Understand is a deeply compassionate and validating book by psychotherapist and grief advocate Megan Devine. Written after the sudden death of her partner, this book challenges the common cultural narrative that grief is something to "get over," "fix," or move past within a certain timeline. Instead, Devine offers a radically different perspective — one that acknowledges pain as a natural, valid response to loss, rather than a problem to be solved.

Drawing on her professional expertise as a therapist and her own lived experience of profound loss, Devine gently dismantles the well-meaning but often harmful advice grieving people frequently receive, such as being told to "stay strong," "look on the bright side," or "give it time." She offers readers permission to grieve fully, without shame or a forced timeline, while also providing practical tools and reflections to help them carry their grief and continue living alongside it. The book is equally valuable for those grieving and for the people who want to support them but don't know how.
