Upcoming Anniversary

[Quootiepie]

Hiya...
I wrote in the Feeling Depressed section but was told my post would be kinda more suitable here. Baby would have been 1 tomorrow

I felt better when DS was born... its just guilt building back up. No support around... I dont really need physical support.

Oh Quootiepie, that is just awful. No woman should have to deal with all of that and it is no wonder you feel the way you do. I now realise DH was missing the time you needed him most. Maybe that could come up at a joint session.

I guess I meant emotional support. Someone to come and chat with you,give you a hug or simply say nothing and watch a film with you - whatever you needed at the time.

no emotional support... i find it hard to open up.

I can understand that. It might be easier with a third party, not related. For what my opinion is worth (bearing in mind, I know nothing), I do think it's worth spilling all to your DH. Or let him read this thread. But then again, maybe that won't be easy either. I guess he'll be home soon? Am thinking of you. x

Hi there quootie.

I 'spoke' to you the other day on the 'feeling despressed' thread, and was the one who suggested you come to here.

I am glad that you have and that you are getting some support.

I am here now to let you know that I am thinking of you and sending support.

we've been through it a hundred times. He thinks at the end of the discussion its back under the carpet again.... sorry for waffling on. Its late.

He just needs to know that it will remain under the carpet but hasn't disappeared. it will inevitably resurface every now and again. I think maybe you saying that to him won't ring home, but it might if a third party or counsellor says it.

please don't apologise. I just wish I had some experience to give some valid advice.

im just so weary with it

You poor thing. It sounds such a burden for you and so many things heaped on top of a difficult time.

In the short term, is it worth trying to get some sleep? have a bath or drink something warm and decaffeinated? I'm not going off yet, just thinking of you - with lack of sleep, you'll feel even worse.

yep, sleep is on the agenda just need to calm myself 1st...

Ok, crap telly or local radio usually work for me in terms of distraction or late night calming.

I really hope you get some sleep. Please let us know how you are tomorrow.

yep, i will do. Just taken my diazepam so once that kicks in, ill go tuck myself in bed with DS. Thanks for tonight xxx

Hey Quootiepie, just checking in to see how you are doing today?

better thanks. Just keeping myself busy.

that's good - take care

Thanks for checking xxx
