Evening all. Feeling generally . Had mc a month ago, and immediately lost the one friend at work who would normally have been there for me (she's since cracked up and gone off sick for 4 weeks, so I can put down her horrible reaction to her own problems). Then 2 weeks after my mc, my cousin who has a DD same age as mine was diagnosed with breast cancer... Then the wife of another cousin, v. young, with a DD, has just had a psychotic breakdown, been sectioned,and the baby is now 3 hrs drive from them, living with her (abominable) granny (my aunt). To cap it all, my DD has stopped sleeping through the night, and is being very aggressive with me (lots of thumping and hitting - she's 4). I'm already in counselling for what I suspect is mild depression, and I really don't want to go down the anti-depressants route. Any suggestions, apart from unplugging the phone and PC? For the mo, the comfort of choice is wine and heavy food, so I've been weepy all day over the fact that the pg, mc and post-mc have left me 2 stones overweight with a 'big fat tummy' (thank you DD). Also there's some sort of concern over antibodies re. the mc, which may even compromise TTC. GREAT. Sorry for rant, I've had enough.
