8 year sufferer with depression and anxiety.. 28 weeks pregnant...

[Kenzie18]

Hey, I've only come on here for my baby boy, I'm currently 28 weeks and I'm feeling more lost than ever, I'm constantly feeling like I'm lost, I don't know who I am, how I'm going to be as a mum, am I going to fail him, I honestly feel like I could just give up, I'm constantly crying, hiding, not going out, I work 2 days a week in a night club and honestly it's the worst thing ever, I'm always down... I don't sleep at all, I'm sick of feeling like this...

You haven't written anything on your profile so we don't know anything about you except what you wrote in your post. How did you feel before being pregnant? Have you suffered from depression before? Have you been diagnosed with any physical illness? You could be suffering from “situational” depression due to your environment. Please write some more details so we can help you.

Hey. I am pregnant too and suffered with depression on and off since my first child that is 8 years. I didn’t had help and was self healing and tried to have some long wished goals that helped me cope. This is my second pregnancy and I started to feel down and cried and felt miserable plus was having problems with my pregnancy that meant for me to stay home. I work nights and that didn’t help either. I suggest seek help. That’s what I did. It’s hard I know that specially if u like me were suffering in silence and put on a brave face in public or at work. Family should be on board as well. I am lucky I guess as my partner helps me get through it too. If he sees me drifting again he takes me somewhere or just talks with me. I also attend therapy session that helped me cope too, to know it’s normal because hormones are going crazy and it makes it all even worst. Maybe take some time off work, trie and rest and take it easy.
