Even though I feel like I am dealing ok with all of this, I am still really depressed. Every morning when I wake up I have the hardest time getting out of bed. I am feeling really antisocial, nothing sounds fun anymore and I am just down all day. I feel like this is never going to go away. I just can't believe that I have had two miscarriages this summer. I feel like I won't ever be my old self again. I also feel really guilty about putting my DH through this(he is being wonderful and telling me not to feel this way). I just feel damaged. Does this ever get better?
I just want to say you're not alone. Even though I have a DS, its still hard and I'm still very depressed. I'm depressed that not only do I have a hard time staying PG.....we have issues getting PG (we have to use treatments....).
I feel like I am walking around as a "fake" person b/c deep inside I feel depressed too. I had a breakdown in the car on Sunday when we were driving home from a trip. I had held myself together all weekend while I played "happy" with my IL's and DH's family.....I just couldn't deal any longer. It felt good to let out a good cry....
(((HUGS)) I know what you mean and I think time is what will help heal it all......
I feel like you. Morning is the hardest because you remember what has happened. I love my dh so much but I feel like I have nothing to look forward to. I know this hurts him because he takes it personally. I work I come home and self medicate then I go to bed. It's all I can do right now and it is barely working.
I think the feeling of being antisocial must be common. My m/c was three weeks ago and I still can't get myself to leave the house for anything except work. I have no interest in doing anything with friends. DH tries to get me to do stuff because he thinks it will make me feel better. So, the other day I finally caved and we went for an outing. What did I see? A pregnant friend and a baby clothing store. It was straight back home after that.
Re: Really depressed
I'm sorry you are going through this. It does get better eventually. Big hugs to you.
