18 weeks, and think i'm going mad. working far too hard. too many hours and at times it's so stressful i feel like i am going to be sick. have to go in a moment, got to work through weekend and next week will be worse still.
pregnancy not even registering with me. missed my first ante natal thing, not been back and no way i can make next one on tuesday.
not told work 'cause scared i will be treated differently and(PLEASE NO JUDGING) they've seen me smoke in last four months.
fear i'm going mad, don't trust my own judgement anymore and managing my team v badly. my contract ends in mid dec (am freelance) but would quit in a mo if i didn't have mounds of debt.
need to hang on for next three months, but every day this seems increasingly difficult.
was depressed in teens, but been ok since, if often work-stressed. last couple of weeks i have had suicidal thoughts.
looking forward to baby, looking forward to new non-working, if poor, life. but now is so tough. don't know how i'm going to quit smoking as it is at mo, 60+ working hours, so low and no folic acid etc.
