Hi everyone haven’t posted anywhere about this before but suddenly feeling like I need to get some things out.

I’m really struggling with keeping it together. Lots of things have happened in my life over the last couple of years such as finding out I have a fertility condition which means we can’t have the baby we desperately want so easily. We moved house twice, and I started a new job.

Over the last two years I have really struggled to make friends something you take for granted as a child and teenager. I find that I can’t really change the way I’m made but I think I’m just lonely even though I like my own company I can’t do it for long periods of time. My hubby is probably my best friend so when he’s not around because of work I don’t seem to cope with the thoughts in my head.

So I want to know what do you guys do to calm how you’re feeling, any thoughts hints or tips would be greatly appreciated

Thank you for reading

Kelly x

You've had a lot of stressful events in the past few years. Have you had any therapy to help you through this difficult time? It would be of great benefit to you.

If your co-workers aren't compatible, there are websites to meet people who share common interests and hobbies. In the US, there is meetup.com and there must be something similar in the UK.

I suppose you'd have to see your GP first to get set up for therapy under Britain's health care system. If it's anything like Canada's system, it will probably take a while to get an appointment with a therapist. But it's an option you might want to keep open.

I'm sorry you are in this situation. It sounds like you have had some struggles. It is helpful for me to research what I am feeling. Sometimes it is good bit.ly/to_find information to read about your circumstances.
