I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
Me and my boyfriend fight constantly about EVERYTHING. I can't talk to my mom, my sister, my Grandpa, we all just argue, about nothing. I talk to nobody cuz noone wants to talk to me anymore. I can't help the mood swings. I cry over every little thing. Every show I watch, every toe I stub, every look I get, everything. If I'm not crying, I'm yelling, or laughing and it can be all in a matter of minutes. I thought I was going mad, but a lot of women feel this way, and a lot of women have different emotions while pregnant, and lots don't know how to deal with it.
I'd suggest talking to your doctor and see what he/she has to say. I mean it could be depression but to me it sounds like pregnancy.
Oh and also, most days I don't feel like doing anything either, besides lying on the couch snoozing. Oh and I hurt myself all the time, walk into things, knock things over, spill things, and the past few days I have stubbed the same toe at least 10 times. It's purple.
So don't feel like your alone ther.
i feel like this too and i have been diagnosed with depression. so i think it is a combination of depression and pregnancy hormones, probably the same with you too.
just be careful because i notice alot of people try to tell you that none of your feelings are actually valid because of the hormones, which i have found makes me feel worse and i start to wonder if i am actually insane. but there are always underlying issues i realise that make things a hell of a lot worse.
it sounds like the OD could have been somekind of post natal depression anyway. so you probably do have that in your system anyway.
it also sounds like you have alot to contend with anyway and ofcourse your going to get majorly stressed when the kids are acting up and what not.
i would talk to your doc about it in your next appiontment they will give you a little multiple choice test and be able to determine if it is depression or not. make sure you have a list of everything thats going on in your life that will help them to see whats happening. but you definately need to get on top of it asap. hope i could be of some help. sorry if this was more like rambling than anything.
if you do have some form of depression it is not as easy as just pulling yourself together, even for your kids. depression is not something to be taken lightly and if there is a propblem it needs to be addressed ASAP.it couldnt hurt to just find out and if you do have some type of depression there are ways of dealing with it, which a doc or therapist will help you with.
its better same than sorry and depression is not an illness that should be ignored. it can be so dangerous.
"snap out of it"....is not a solution...depression is real
Cognitive Behaviour Therapy...would be a useful tool
good luck...unfortunatl I have lots of experience with depression... if you need to chat just PM me
From what you have shared you have a whole range of stressfull factors contributing to your feelings of hopelessness at present & if just "snapping out of it" were an option you probably would have taken that one up some time prior to your posting of this blog.
Some people really do have more natural ability to bounce back than others and if you are not one of these fortunate people you need to give yourself permission to reach out for help and not see it as a weekness but as a strength - wisdom on your part.
Its true that pregnancy blues are playing a part in your feelings but clearly other things are weighing in heavily and making it worse. Counselling could really help you see all the issues you facing and assist you in problem solving and management of these feelings and circumstances. As it sounds like your are feeling overwhelmed and need help to see a clear way through so as you can get to feeling more positive and like there is a light at the end of the tunnell.
Good luck hun, let us know how things progress...
