I recently started attending a mum's group. I didn't really want to. I felt pressure from family telling me I should get out more.
I find it hard to engage with the group and I feel like I've made a massive effort. I don't feel we're getting anything out of it.
However, I have had two bouts of pnd and after effects of an illness makes me prone to anxiety. I had panic attacks in the supermarket after ds was born so getting out and about is a huge deal for me. Also one of my best friends died suddenly a few months ago and ever since I've found making friends difficult.
None of the mums in the group know these things about me and I'm wondering if I'd get better treatment from them if they did.
They excluding me from things and appear uninterested in anything I have to say. I feel worse than I did before I started going and angry at my family for pushing me into it.
Dd hasn't particularly formed any friendships either.
