Today I think my Best Friend dumped me. And then I found out I was pregnant. Has anyone else had a completely overwhelming day?

Best Friend is female like me, totally platonic, so in no way connected to the conception or parentage of the embryo. Nor does Best Friend know about the pregnancy, as it's all just way beyond what she could cope with hearing at the moment. It's a shit situation and I feel no anger towards her but only sadness. And I wish that I could turn to her. My health conditions mean that I'm at stratospherically high risk from this pregnancy (though my last pregnancy a get months back ended in miscarriage before the risks took hold) and though I know I can get the medical care I need, it would have been nice to chat to her.

Is anyone else out there feeling totally overwhelmed by the events of their day?

I'm doing OK today, but wanted to send you a hug. Why dont you tell me a bit more about why you think she dumped you. And congrats on the (little) bump

Yes, it's my wedding anniversary today (we're separated.....) And my DP dumped me because I tried to talk to them about something they said to me that I found hurtful. Definitely an overwhelming day Sad

Hugs to you both.

Why she dumped me: it's really potentially a bit outing. But she has been mentally very unwell for a while, and no longer seems able to distinguish my voice from the voices she hears in her head. I wish I could help, but I know that I can't.

That sounds so tough for her and you. But well done for knowing when to step back.
