I'm really really struggling. With life in general but infertility has played a big part in ruining everything.
Dsis is expecting. It's killing me. The announcement (face to face) knocked me and there was fallout as I lost it and said it was insensitive and I'd have preferred an email etc.
All sorted now but I'm struggling. I want to be supportive but I feel like I'm being emotionally stabbed all the time. If she talks excitedly about the baby I end up leaving g the room every so often to go to the bathroom (I hide and sob).
She's having a baby shower. I want to go but I'm going to find it so hard. I want to be a good sister but I'm really fighting all the time against depression and heartbreak and upset and it's only getting worse.
It's draining me to even see her. It's not jealousy it's just this overwhelming sadness it's not me as well. I'm so sad. I feel bad as she asked me to feel the baby kick and without thinking recoiled in horror and I didn't mean it like that at all :(
Feel like a shit person and I want to be a good aunty but I feel like my hearts breaking.
Need some tips on coping with this
