Hi all. I am new to this... I just need to be with people who understand. How can I be this sad if I have everything my heart desire? A wonderful husband and an amazing daughter. And then the anxiety sets in because tommorrow they might not be here anymore and then I will forever regret not being a better wife and mom - someone who smile more. This is a vicious and non-stop cycle. It has been 2 years since being diagnosed and I still struggle. Sometimes I feel like they will be better of without me, but then I look into those green sunshine eyes of my 10 year old and know I must be there for her. And the most amazing thing about her is that she can immediately see when I am not myself and be this grown-up looking after me. Having a very bad day today.
Tomorrow... : Hi all. I am new to this... - Anxiety and Depre...
Tomorrow...
Trust me - your little ones were entrusted to you for a reason. You were handpicked by God to be present in their lives. Often we feel inadequate when the darkness starts creeping in and self-doubt sets in. But to your little ones - even on your worst day - you are enough. Try to be compassionate toward yourself when feeling low, acknowledge those feelings and allow yourself to feel them. KEEPING IN MIND THOUGH: that you are supermom to those little ones who love you unconditionally.
I hear you. I feel like this when struggling with our unexplained infertility. I dont feel good enough for my husband because I have a misshapen uterus (that doctor's tell me shouldn't stop conception) but I feel sometimes must be why nothing is happening. These feelings stretch into normal life too while I'm trying to find a new career and don't feel confident really about anything. My little cats help me everyday and just know.
I'm there with you, you will be everything and more to those around you. Lots of love xxx
