Baby blues

[lucy2204]

How long did your baby blues last? 🤔I'm 11 days in and have days we're there terrible and then days when I'm completely fine -.- (mine started day 5 so only been up and down for a couple days)

@Lemonysherbet hoping so to! It's so bloody hot, an I need to pop to town to finish off picking up my eldest school uniform, it's horrible going out atm as it is xx

I'm glad your doing much better! Xx

@Lemonysherbet hey hun hope your still doing okay and you and your family are staying safe through everything 😷xx

Hey @lucy2204 sorry I didn't get an email so didn't know you had posted.

I'm actually struggling a lot at the moment. Feeling really low and crying a lot.

How are you doing

@Lemonysherbet oh hun🤗I'm here if you need to talk my phone pings emails so would be able reply within 10 mins and I'm okay I'm doing a hell of a lot better than before I'm okayish going out now and I only over think about the dam virus but that hasn't been everyday so I'm not to worried have you spoken to anyone about how your feeling? (hv, gp) Xx

@lucy2204

Thank you, that's so kind. I'm glad you're getting out and about more and feeling stronger.

No not yet. It's only got a lot worse this week (I think because I've had time to pause). I'm just going to give it some time to see if I can help myself first.

@Lemonysherbet defo try that, I think that's what helped me was I actually took time bk to try and sort it myself

@Lemonysherbet just checking in, how you feeling now xx

@lucy2204 doing better thanks, Getting there. How are you?

@Lemonysherbet I'm glad your doing better I'm doing okay, my oldest is about to start school so I've been forced on that which has helped xx

@lucy2204 that must be scary and exciting!!!

@Lemonysherbet defo more scary than exciting tbh :( but his school has a lot in place incase any cases pop up so fingers crossed we're safe 🤞

@Lemonysherbet had a very bad today, lots of panic attacks and stomach cramps on the pick up :( my ibs is playing up to so don't want to do I just want to curl up in a ball and never leave the house again 😭

@lucy2204 sorry lovely I didn't see your comment. Hope you're doing better now. Take it easy on yourself bad days will happen but they won't be here always, I promise.

@Lemonysherbet feeling a little better mine all seem to be about the school run and school in generally tbh -.- there's cases in our area now luckily not in my sons school but another school in the same town :( I really want to pull him out but he's enjoying it so much :( I'm trying to self refer for cbt but it keeps crashing :( hope your okay and staying safe xxx

It helps that you know what's causing it I guess as you can try and mentally prepare? That's crap about covid cases, it's hard to know what to do for the best but I'm very much of the life goes on mentality and we can't stop loving forever. Makes me sad my son never knew a covid free world. Is that weird

@Lemonysherbet yeah I suppose I get all the worst symptoms of anxiety -.- 💩 I have my health visitor here Friday just to see if she can help, I'm trying to move him to a school closer to my house (5mins walk) as his one is 20 mins walk atm and no buses take us there which I don't think helps, + no one is social distancing at all there :( and it's not wide at all it's so sad my eldest is start to notice that something isn't right everyone wearing mask and having to wait in line for stuff, I think he finds it crazy I'm just glad he doesn't know why there wearing them etc he just knows he don't like it all
