I feel like I've been in a depressive episode for a few months now. I've had enough. I'm so unhappy with my life.

I went to bed last night wanting to die and thought if I can just fall asleep, it won't feel so bad in the morning. Well I woke up feeling exactly the same. I can't do this anymore.

I saw my GP who won't prescribe me anything because I'm pregnant. I'm booked in for a termination the week after next.

I just can't bear this any longer Sad

Can you take yourself to a and e? Is there someone in rl who can go with you?

I have my kids so I can't go to A&E. I don't feel like I want to hurt myself but I also don't want to be here anymore.

I am so sorry you are feeling like this. Please keep posting on here, there will be plenty who can give you advice and support. What about ringing the Samaritans? Flowers

If you get a referral to a psychiatrist then you can get antidepressants when you are pregnant. I was thinking of having a termination when I was pregnant with my DD but I got prescribed fluoxetine by my CMHT and I was alright in the end.

I'm due to start counselling next month but making it until then seems impossible.

I'm not sure about samaritans. Just not sure what to say to them

How are you op?

Things are pretty unbearable. I have DC so can't do anything but I wish to god I could fall asleep and not wake up. The pain is just horrific.

Go back to your gp op. Hold on in there it will get better. Flowers do you have any family or friends that you can spend time with?

I have a gp appointment Monday, made it earlier today.

I'm with family on holiday at the moment and it's too much.

I'm two years on from leaving an abusive relationship and I always thought at least if I left it couldn't get worse. I was totally wrong. I wish I'd just put up with him and stayed.

I don't even know if it was abusive anymore or if I was just an unbearable bitch.

I left my abusive exh and was expecting to free great afterwards instead I hit rock bottom 22 months a after separating and it took me another two years to get to feeling not too bad. It was all part of the grieving and healing process for me.

Good luck on Monday. I think your gp should give you antidepressants, cbt and a psychiatrist referral. Make sure they do. Don't play it down to them, write things down if you find it hard to talk

Have you spoken to mind? They have really good advice

Are your family no help/support? Have you spoken to them about how you are feeling?
