I just need somebody to talk to

I need to tell somebody I’m struggling. I have a 8 month old daughter and a boyfriend and live together. This is all I have wanted all my life but why do I feel so down?

I have a good relationship with my sister but family wise that’s it. My mother has caused a lot of strain due to her partner being a drug user. My brother and I are distant due to distance and my father isn’t that interested but my In laws are amazing.

I am still very down about my after baby body, I have lost enough weight but I’m still flappy.

I have had a panic attack recently and have confused all this to my partner but he just either doesn’t understand or care. He puts it to being moody or hormones. Apart from this we have a good relationship if not abit arguey but that’s maybe my fault because of how I’m feeling.

I love being a mother and my daughter is the best thing I’ve ever seen but my other half doesn’t understand that it is hard being a mum ( going back to work when she’s 14 months) and says he’s always tired from working and that’s harder than looking after her.

I’m sorry for rambling I just need to express my concerns for myself

Can you talk to your GP?

It's often hard for those who love us and know us to truly understand.

Maybe if you talk to your GP or Health Visitor you can start to help yourself.
