New to Depression I have a few questions for those of you that are or have suffered with depression. My Dh and I decided last OCT. to stop TTC after 5 years of trying the last straw was when I hyperstimmed and was in the hospital and it all costed almost 7 grand. Since then I have switched to a job that I am very unhappy with and it seems everyone around me is getting pregnant. I must say that I think I have always dealt with some form of depression but over the last few months it has gotten worse. I have an overwhelming feeling of dread almost every day I have what I feel like is an emptiness in my chest, I am almost always on the verge of tears and when I am not crying my temper is very short I can fly off on a dime. I have such a bleak outlook on life now it just consumes me, I have come to the point that my thoughts are overcome with the meaning of life. I am almost 28 years old and I am in a dead end job and I virtually live pay check pay check to pay check, I am almost 100% sure I am never gonna have children and I see a very dismal future for myself. I totally have never felt like this before. My question is what kind of results have you ladies have with seeking medical help? Did you go to your family Dr. for advice or your obgyn? Please help any advice is greatly appreciated!! I know I can count on my cysters to lend me a helping hand! |
