Hi im new here. i suffer from depression but have it under control with meds. Recently i found out i was pregnant then lost it. When i knew i was pregnant i couldnt handle it and felt like i was losing the plot. Now i feel like i casn never have children because of the way i felt and how i couldnt cope. Now im like: whats the point in anything. I feel like there is no reason for me being here. The one thing i feel like i should be able to do (have a baby) without it becoming complecated, and i couldnt even do that. I feel like..... im just existing. My perpose in life for me was to have a baby. So if thats taken away from me like everything else because of my depression and anxiety, then....whats the point?

we all react differently when we become pregnant. I reacted the same as you with my first pregnacy but my circumstances were bad, my second pregnacy was totally different due to again my circumstances and the people around me were good this time. Be kind to yourself, you will be a great mum when the time is right.

There is a reason for you to be here as there is a reason for all of us to be here. Ofcourse we usually do not know what the reason is, some of us do figure it out.. Sorry about what you are going through but there are alot of people here at DS that care.. Hugs and peace.. Y'Vonne

I have been here before, a long long time ago and now I am back.Forgive me for not just saying what I want to say,even under a triple dose of antidepressants it is still raw and seeping and I am hesitant at revealing it as at least under the bandages around my heart I don,t have to look at how raw and wounded.My child was cleaved from my heart by his own actions. my child of ten,turning eleven...
