That is, melancholy is perceived as an ailing response to significant loss, and mourning as a healing experience. This article explores melancholy and mourning beyond this ailing\/healing logic. It does by asking women who are in infertility treatment what it means for them to actually live with and through melancholy and mourning. These women reveal that they desperately desire their lost time as a pregnant woman, their lost love life and\/or their lost future as (not) a mother. By (re)narrating their pasts, some of these women attempt to escape this melancholy and mourn their losses. At first glance, such stories seem to fit the logic of melancholy as ailing and mourning as curative. However, this article reveals that these women\u2019s melancholy and mourning is inherently ambiguous. For them, melancholy instigates a joyous painfulness, something that is or is not overcome through the agonising exertion of mourning.<!--TrendMD v2.4.8--><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>From September&#8217;s issue, we are happy to preview the work of Marjolein de Boer: Beyond pathology: women\u2019s lived experiences of melancholy and mourning in infertility treatment.
