I'm so numb, I can't feel

[cantxgetxaxgrip]

I really am starting to hate my life/where I am in life right now. It's all going so steadily downhill and I dunno how to make it stop. Things had been going so great over the past while, I moved in with the man I love, we got along amazingly, hardly ever fought. Then things changed. I'm not sure why or exactly when, but they did. And I'm pregnant

I understand how all of a sudden when things are going great, everything falls apart. It happens a lot. I've gone in and out of depression stuff like that too, It sucks to be like "hey, I thought this was over" but you got yourself out of it before and you can do it again!

I also feel the same way about therapists, very hesitant, reluctant to spend all that money that I don't really have and talking to a total stranger about my problems. I am gonna go for the first time (to a marriage counselor) this month.

Obviously being pregnant it would be a bad idea to start popping pills again.. there are a lot of pregnancy assistance centers where you can get help (if you need it) with medical stuff and emotional stuff and probably financial stuff. If you already have a doctor, talk to them about your stress. You've got hormones on top of already having emotional issues, don't try to deal with it alone. Do you have any family you can lean on if the guy isn't going to be there for you? They can be a major source of strength, you don't always have to deal with stuff alone.

Good luck with everything!

I second the thing about family. Just when you think they wouldn't care, they often do!

Oh, I'm not even thinking about popping pills. I haven't done anything that I know is bad for the baby since I found out I'm pregnant. I try to even not take in that much caffeine.

But as far as the family thing goes....none of them really seem to understand all this stuff. I've talked to my mom about it before, but nothing really seemed to really fall into her head, you know?

He's always there for me, but sometimes I think he just doesn't understand how to deal with me when I get like this cause he's never really had to deal with stuff like this before.
