Today in felt really down. A member of my family passed away last night and I didn’t find out till dinnertime and had to spend the rest of the day with out any one to talk to at work.

I’m working so hard making sure my diet and lifestyle is right for TTC and I feel like it’s just a waste of time and just another thing that’s going to make me upset. I’m sick of seeing women not looking after there kids and wishing so much that I could have one of my own and it just seems like its never going to happen.

I just feel so tired and upset all the time. I spend 7/8 hours a day at work while my husband is at home then when I finish work I feel like I have to spend time with him and I want to but im just so tired all I want to do is sleep. But when I go to bed I feel like I never see him. ARRRGE! I just want to be in the house on my own and be able to not feel guilty about spending some time alone and doing what ever I want to do.

I’ve worked full time for 7months now and I never earn enough money to do anything or buy anything. I just work to pay the bills and buy food. Its so frustrating! I love working and I like my job but the constant circle is driving me up the wall!! I want to be able to go shopping and buy stuff or at least be able to go to the cinema once in a while.

I thought today was bad enough but my dream last night brought up bad memories of my past. I was on medication for depression about 3 years ago for being aggressive and “not myself”. I wanted to be on them for many reasons one of them was because of my weird sleeping patterns. I just couldn’t stay awake. I would constantly daydream about a girl. It was like I was playing back memories in my head but as if I was her. I thought it would go after I was on medication but it didn’t. After about 4 months I thought I was mad, I didn’t want to be friends with any one and I constantly thought about killing myself. I was too scared to tell any one and for about a year I was uncontrollably obsest with a girl id never even met before!

Last night I had the same sort of dream but it wasn’t a girl I didn’t know, it was my husband. I just constantly feel like people are looking at me and laughing. I don’t talk to any one because im scared they wont like me and I think it’s a joke.

The most annoying thing about today was probably the thread about peado’s. Probably the 100th post about peado’s iv done where some one has had a go at me because they have misunderstood what I said, after I told them what id gone though – that sort of thing makes life worth living! I feel like no one even cares about me. It took the doctors 3 months to get me a physiatrist (sp?) so I told them to shove it. I don’t care if they have other people they have to see, I needed help and they made me wait 3 months! I almost killed myself in the time it took for them to sort it out. Stupid thing is I could have been seen by some one in town that day but they couldn’t be bothered to give me the number.

I just have no confidence or self esteem. It’s not even coincidences anymore, its just me, I attract bad things and its just meant for everything to go wrong for me. It seems like there’s no way out :cry:
 
hi hun i really feel for you, i know how horrible depression really is. i dont want you to take this the wrong way ok and i dont want to offend you in any way either but do you think having a baby now when your feeling so low will help any? I know what its like being very depressed and listening to a screaming baby its not easy hun but i guess you already know all this otherwise you wouldnt be TTC.

Maybe your just feeling down because it hasnt happend yet and maybe once you get that BFP you will start feeling good about yourself and its amazing how many people stop you in the street to have a look at your LO so you will get your confidence back aswell.

if you need to talk my addy is

Hun I also like weestar know what it's like to battle with depression. I suffered from depression and a severe anxiety disorder for about 4 or 5 years. I like weestar also think that you should maybe think about having a baby when you've sorted out you're emotions. Sorry that sounded totally wrong but I'm not sure how to word it. Depression is a horrible thing and if you haven't dealt with it before a baby arrives it can make things a hundred times worse. Babies test your patients on a completely different level than anything else and it takes a strong person to totally hold it together. Even I have my bad days still but I have got better.

I think you need to speak to someone to address your issues. I had a support worker for 3 years who helped me so much! Without her I don't think I would even be here today. I'd always wanted a baby from a young age and when I met my husband I just knew it would be him I wanted a baby with and get married too. The one thing I needed out of my life was my issues and I dealt with them with the help of my support worker and husband and now I feel on top of the world. I got off Anti depressants and we started trying for a baby and ever since I have been on a non stop high but if I hadn't had dealt with my problems I don't think it would have worked out so well, especially for my son.

The most important thing is that you're in the right frame of mind to deal with pregnancy and becoming a mother because everything that happens to you will effect your baby and you need to be amazingly strong! I really feel for you hun because I know how hard it is! You've only been trying for a baby for a few weeks hun so you could be pregnant or it could take a while, every woman is different and you should enjoy the time of trying. I really hope everything works out for you and you feel better soon. I wish you all the luck in trying to concieve and hope it happens for you if it's what you really want! Good luck hun! :hug:
 
You need to speak to someone about this hun. Try the samaritans - its not as sad as you think. Its just a voice at the end of the phone who can listen and its anonymous :hug:
 
hi Jenna, I suffer from anxiety and i can understand how low you must be feeling hun. having someone close to you die is bound to make you feel more depressed and maybe that is why you are having these recurrant dreams and sleep desturbances. You are young and have so much time ahead of you and you can still be independant even though you are married. get your friends round and have a girlie night in or hire a dvd and snuggle up with your husband. Its horrible when you have no money to do things but when you have a baby, you wont be able to go out :bored: x
