How would you know if you are going trough depression or the way you feel is normal? 6 days have passed since I got the news that my beta was not doubling. After one M/C I really did not expect this to happen to me again. I have been feeling down for the past few days and nothing is helping to make me feel better. I can’t be positive or strong. I am not interested in seeing anyone or talking to anyone specially the ones that have kids. There is nothing in this world that can give me that push to help me get out of this cycle. I go through hours of deep sadness and even crying does not heal the pain inside me. This sadness is so heavy on my chest that makes breathing hard for me. I use to love having visitors and now I tell everyone we are not available. I use to love my job and now I hate it. I use to be optimistic about future and now I can’t foresee one. I hate my body and my disease. I am mad at my family for being quite after hearing the news and pretending nothing is wrong. I just want to be alone and that worries me. What if infertility pushes me over the cliff? Am I feeling normal? Do I need to seek help?













Your feelings are normal for someone who has went through what you have. You cannot do this alone.
From my own personal experience, I tried to remain strong and fight through the depression and anxiety. I fought so hard...and it hurt me deeply in the long run. I suffered a loss and ended up spiralling out of control with my own health. I developed chest pains, very similar to heart attack types of feelings. It dibilitated me so that I could not live my normal life.
I wish I never took it that far. I wish I never let my stressful feelings and depressive state control my life to that degree. Since then, I am on anti-anxiety medication and I speak with someone each week. I am happier and healthier. I do not suffer from the chest pain anymore and am learning to cope with my stresses in a new way.
You need to help yourself out before you can move on to try again. You need to heal your broken heart before you will be strong enough to try again.
I hope that you find peace soon and please know there are those of us here who have went through what you have, so if you need to talk to someone who gets it, please do not hesitate to pm any of us. We cannot go through this path alone, we need to find the comfort of each other to break down the barrier of pain that this path brings.
Much love to you and plenty of healing dusts being sent your way to heal that broken heart.
