Is anyone else doing this alone?

[Gjokur]

Like the subject implies, I'm single and going through IVF. I am hoping there's someone out there that is doing the same. It would be great to come in contact with someone on the same journey. I don't know why I was surprised, but it's a lonely journey. No one really gets what it's like. No one that shares the same intense hope, and of course disappointment when it fails.
I'm only on the second round and it's brutal. The not being able to impact how it goes, the long, long wait for every little step. I am petrified that the clinic will just say that there is no point in trying anymore. Or that it will eventually be to expensive to continue.
Other than that I'm 34 and I live in Sweden. Not too many IVF forums there and this was the one that was in my google results, so here I am.
Please don't hesitate to write if you're interested in having someone to share this journey with.

Bumping for you, OP. I know there’s a few people around here who are doing it alone, hopefully someone else will come along to chat with you who is in the same situation. But you’re right it is very lonely and difficult, obviously you should feel free to join any existing threads on here that are relevant.

Thank you so much, it's very kind of you, both bumping for me and inviting me to join any existing treads. I might do that!

@Gjokur no problem, there’s an active one at the moment about people finding it tough emotionally that I’ve found helpful recently.

@thislittlebird I will try to find it, thank you.
