Battling Boredom, Infertility, and a Shopping Addiction

I'm going through a tough time. I have a high-paying job, enjoy coffee, dining out, and spending time with my husband. But that's about it.

Life has become monotonous, and the struggle with infertility has made me withdraw from social events. I don't like speaking to many people outside work and I've withdrawn from friendships. On the outside everything looks perfect but I go home bored out of my brain.

To cope, I've developed a shopping addiction. I'd appreciate advice or support from anyone who can relate.

I don't want to go on anti depressants as TTC and in the unlikely event I do get pregnant feel it's best for the baby.

That sounds really tough OP! Sounds like you might need to mix things up; new hobby, new job, new challenge. I know infertility can be a really draining process and don't really have any advice but wish you the best of luck.

@Dinglewoop thank you. I'm really struggling. No one understands not even DH.
