Need to vent

[ADHDPCOS]

My little sister had her 4th baby yesterday and I am ‘having a sad’. I’m happy I get a new nephew to spoil but unbelievably heartbroken at the same time. Needed to tell someone.

I know this feeling, just want to say you are not alone. Life is so cruel.xx

It’s okay to hold space for both joy and sadness at the same time. Your feelings are so valid, and it’s tough when something beautiful can also highlight your own journey in ways that hurt. Be gentle with yourself and take it one moment at a time. xx

Vent, rant, scream, cry, do whatever you need to do! You have every right to feel this way. And make sure to take some time for yourself, especially this time of the year! It can be hard work and very draining being happy for everyone else whilst carrying this pain. Thinking of you and sending lots of hugs x

🩷 I felt the same, it gets a little easier with time. Give yourself a break, it can also be a tough time of year when we feel in this limbo situation but I promise it gets easier xx

You're not alone 💕 I hope you can find some comfort in taking time for yourself and have a space to feel the feelings. Talking with a partner or a friend that can understand or a therapist really helps, being creative and get busy with a hobby is also soothing and can distract you, do some exercise, being in nature. It's a journey and we're gonna feel sad and just angry, and it's OK. Some distance from situations and people that trigger these feelings can also help. Prioritise yourself. You'll get there one way or another 🌈 sending you a big hug and happy holidays

Please don't be hard on yourself it's completely normal to feel this way when struggling with fertility. It's ok to be happy for your sister but also sad for yourself. Do some nice things for yourself and never feel guilty for what you are feeling. Vent here anytime most of us have been in your situation and know how hard it is. Sending hugs 🫂
