feeling really down

[Clover]

Hey Hun sending some hugs I suffer with anxiety - tried meds they didn't work. Read an amazing book which basically trained me to live alongside it rather than get rid of it. I know those days well when you wake up and you just can't shift that feeling. You feel guilty because you love everything that is in your life! Just know your not alone, going for a walk on my own makes me feel better, if I can get myself to go! Ha xx

Hey hun
In a way it's nice to know others that experience anxiety and depression, although I wouldn't wish it on anyone it's nice to get support from others going through it ,
I've started on a healthy eating plan and I'm not sure if that's also affecting my mood, I do want to lose weight (lost 12 lb in 2 weeks so far) but if it's going to make me more depressed I may have to allow myself treats
I am feeling better today than I did yesterday, going to take one day at a time

Big hugs.

Thanks Em,
Just having a bad day!! I'm waiting to Ovulate so I'm always a bit down at this point in my cycle, trying to stay positive
How are you doing? Is it your scan tomorrow?

xxxxx

Yep, scan is tomorrow.

I'm shitting myself if I'm honest.

Just praying all is ok in there.

I've got my fingers crossed for you hun.

XX

Good luck sweetie I pray everything is ok

xxxxx

I'm so sorry to read this Clover well you know I'm still on meds right now even with TTC. I hope you feel better soon, you are entitled to feel low anyway I know I am with TTC, let alone the depression/anxiety on top of it! I'm waiting on counselling and hoping it may help. I really hope this is just a short blip for you but if you want to chat please PM me, also please let someone know if it gets too difficult to cope with on your own, they won't make you go on medication if you don't want to xxxxxx

I know what you mean, it's good you can talk to people on here tho and they won't judge you. It's such a hard thing to overcome if a person breaks their leg, they go in a cast and rest and it heals. But the mind it's not seen like that, there's no cast and we certainly don't rest - so it's tough to fix. Make time for yourself to relax and enjoy something, I was told when your not thinking about how you feel your not stressing and that is the rest your mind needs. Apparently it's a tired mind that causes anxiety and depression in the first place. Hope your ok today xx

Oh Gail I am so sorry, I wish I had some advice but I'm creeping into the same boat unfortunately. I would like to send you a massive virtual hug and hope that you start to feel better soon. I think the best thing to do is to concentrate on the good things and appreciate them, even the tiniest of things that makes you happy. Each time I kiss/hug my husband I remind myself of how lucky I am to have him and to be loved, some people don't have that and would give anything for it so I will make sure to be happy because I know he is happy as long as I am!

Woah, emotional. xXx

Sorry to hear you're feeling like this Clover. It's possible, since you've switched to clean eating, that it is at least in part connected to all the toxins etc coming out of your system. Once you start eating healthily it's not unusual to feel much worse for a while, then start feeling better. Especially if you've stopped eating sugar, sweetener, caffeine. Exercise outdoors, even if just a short walk, can help a little too. I have a friend that's suffered from severe depression for years and has pretty much managed to beat it with exercise and healthy eating.

Hey hun
I think it may be due to my change of diet, I did have a treat meal and cake on Saturday night but felt worse afterwards!!
I will carry on and hopefully feel and look better soon
Hope you get your Bfp soon lovely

Hi Girls,
I don't want to moan and I feel silly posting this, but I just feel really down and depressed
I have suffered from depression and anxiety in the past and been on medication, at the moment I'm not on meds, and I have felt the depression creeping up on me, for the past few months its been getting worse, every morning I wake up with the same feeling, and I don't know how to snap myself out of it
I'm on a healthy eating plan and I am trying to stay positive about TTC but it just seems its getting harder to stay positive

sorry for the moan, just had to get it out! lol

Clover I have just seen this.

Im so sorry you have been feeling like this hun. Its not good is it. When I felt like this I went to the doctors and he said that every day when you wake up pick one thing that will happen in the day and really look forward to it and enjoy it. Even if its something like sitting down and having a coffee on your own for 5 min or cooking a nice dinner. Its just having that positive attitude towards something that helps.

I did it for a while and it helped me a little. Try it it may help you a little too.

Hope your feeling a bit more positive soon hun.

Here if you need me.

xx
