Hello Fifister, sorry to hear you are feeling low. Infertility can be very lonely particularly when those around you don't understand. It is definitely not easy! This forum is really good for support. I have also been seeing a counsellorand find it incredibly helpful to talk through things with her. You may find that quite useful. Take care x

Welcome!

I only joined this site late last year and have found it very supportive, especially if I'm having a down day. It's also nice to get updates from the other women (and some men) who are going through the same types of experiences, although we've all got different stories.

I find talking helps me so you might want to access some counselling or share with people who you think will be supportive.

Hi fifster and welcome....

I have not been on hero on either but confirm that the support has been amazing. I found out about my infertility at 18 now 40, have been pregnant a few times but unsuccessful in all :(

I coped with it in my own as not really close to family and only a handful of close friends. It is and was a very lonely time....thought I was ok with not having kids of my own as when my sister got sick I stepped in and we agreed I would raise her baby he is now 15 and I had him from 3 days old. I love him as he was my own so until this point I was fine didn't have a partner that was bothered or serious enough to understand that I couldn't have kids until now.....

Talk to other that are in the same boat try not to deal with it all on your own, you are defo not alone on here. Do you know where and what you want to do.moving forward?

Perhaps as the others have said try to see a counsellor but don't bottle it up.

Private message me if you just need a little rant or chat.... but a good start is joining this group everyone understands and is.on the rollacoaster of fertility problems 1 way or another you will.find massive support on here.

Wishing you the best xx
