Holidays

edited December 2013 in Secondary IF
So once upon a time Christmas used to be my favorite holiday and would usually brighten my spirits if I were down and out. However I have noticed that the past few years (while TTC#2) it is a lot harder to bring up my spirits. Even when I see the joy and hapiness on my kids' faces. I think I may need to go back to the therapist and get anti-depressants. Even though I don't feel depressed all the time...maybe I just need anti-slump ideas...

What do the ladies of SIF do?

    I know it's hard but my goal is to not let SIF rob me of the joy of watching my son during the Christmas holidays. I just put all my effort into giving him a good childhood.

    ((Hugs))

    Hopefully 2014 is our year :)

    I guess I look to distractions too. Music is and always has been my go to. I like to rock my face off! \m/ \m/

    Doesn't really feel like the holidays to me.  It's all kind of creeped up on me.  I guess that's fine, they haven't felt the same over the last few years any way.

    I love you gals already ! Just reading your responses warmed my heart. I think it makes a difference to talk to people who are going through SIF and know how devastating it is and the rollercoaster of emotions you go through. 

    This shit sucks. 

    It is my hope we all have a wonderful New Year and we all get good news soon. 

    Cheers!
