I’m 3 months pregnant and feeling very depressed. I wasn’t feeling great before getting pregnant but it seems to have tripled, I’m guessing as a result of my hormones increasing. I just hate my routine of life, my job causes me a great deal of stress as I’m being bullied by everyone. I’ve never been able to defend myself I just stay quiet and accept whatever happens so they have learned they can call me names and treat me badly and I won’t do anything. I then come home to a house I despise. It needs a lot of work and has never felt like home just a roof we live under. The area and neighbours are making it harder for me to try and see the positives. I just come home and sit and cry for hours which then makes me sick and I can barely eat. My partner works long hours and even though I tell him how I feel he isn’t physically here when I need him. He tends to see positives in everything and tells me it will get better eventually. That doesn’t help me because I want support and a shoulder to cry on, he just doesn’t get it. I don’t feel like there is any area of my life I can be happy about right now. Even thinking about the baby just makes me feel guilt rather than excitement now. We can’t afford to move and if I leave my job I won’t get my maternity package. I feel trapped and so alone. No one will help me with my feelings or offer any realistic advice to help me get through it, I thought I could rely on my friends for this type of thing but they just tell me to give it time. They are probably used to me feeling down about my life in general and never being able to find happiness. I know there isn’t much anyone can do for me but I’d really appreciate some kind words of encouragement
