Short version ish

Felt suicidal in the past after my first son. But got better with help. Had second baby but only had two weeks mat leave the stress of looking after two kids all day, work in evening, night feeds and husband working away plus family stress just makes me want to give up on life. We don't have any external support at all. Plus the current state of the world I can't see thing's getting better. I have to work, when i got pregnant i could have afforded to have low hours but now i cant hence the situation. Been on sertraline a while which helped ish but not anymore even with higher dosage

Feeling hopeless

Sounds ridiculous but friend had her baby today, uncomplicated pregnancy easy natural water birth. Everything I wanted but didn't get either time because im useless and its just made everything feel unmanageable even though I am pleased and happy for her

Hello OP, we are really sorry to hear you are feeling this way.

We hope you don't mind, but when these threads are flagged up to us we usually add a link to our Mental Health resources. You can also go to the Samaritans website or email them on [email protected]. Support from other Mumsnetters is great and we really hope you will be able to take some comfort from your fellow posters, but as other MNers will tell you, it's really a good idea to seek RL help and support as well.

We are going to move this thread to the Mental Health section shortly.’
