So I feel overwhelmed and broken

I’m still grieving the very tragic and traumatic loss of my brother and nanna. Both passed within 8 weeks of each other and I was half way through my pregnancy.

My head is done in.

I want to run away.

I love made a safe safe in our spear bedroom and have some very good apps to help me with my grief. I’m on various waiting lists for counselling but they are 2 to 3 months long. I’m on depression and anxiety medication.

Work are very supportive and understanding. I’ve only taken 2 days off since going back in April as I felt I was on the verge of a breakdown. Im back now.

My little boy is unwell and teething so his mood isn’t great at the moment, he’s very upset and clingy.

I just want to scream and cry and run away

I hear you OP. I am so sorry for your losses, which must have been made even harder by happing during your pregnancy. Do you have someone who you can talk to now? Even though you are still waiting for counselling, it may help just to talk to someone you trust about how you are feeling. Flowers for you
