Overdue and Panicking

[SkaSha]

Hi everyone I'm new here and really needed to post this.

Ive had a bit of a turbulent pregnancy and have worried from the start but lately it has gotten worse and I have started having extreme bouts of anxiety with panic attacks.

I'm now overdue and after a membrane sweep I am in alot of pain, I can't eat, can't sleep and have even started with sleep apnea but when I have discussed this with the midwives they never seem bothered.

I can never get hold of either of the midwives I am supposed to see (their phones never seem to be on) and I always end up having to ring the hospital.

Even though my partner has been absolutely fantastic I just feel like I am so alone and cry all the time and I feel like I can't cope anymore :(

I've often thought that everyone would be better off if i wasnt around and I just don't want to wake up in the mornings.

I've told my partner and he reassures me that everything will be fine but I can't see it.

I know I only have a week left but I just want everything to be over, I dont know what to do.

(((hugs)))
It does sound like things are not right with you.
I would definetely making an appointment to see your GP or ring the hospital and ask to speak to te on-call supervisor of midwives and tell them how you are feeling.
Have you had any previous problems with depression?

bless you... get some help.. be it from the hospital or your gp.

for really dark times there is always someone at the end of the phone (I rang the samaritans recently and they are LOVELY).

you WILL feel like yourself again.. just give it time
