I'm not feeling supported through my lows! Really starting to despise my baby's father. That asshole told me to "suck it up" when I, while sobbing, asked him for a hand to get out of this valley I'm in. God bless the one friend that I have who just had a beautiful baby girl and who also struggled with depression through her pregnancy. She not only pointed me to this app, but she also gave me the encouragement that I needed.
I swear, I just need him to understand that in those times where I find it hard to gather my own strength, an external vote of confidence makes all the difference.
Tough titties, I guess.
@opaquetitan1, this app has already been a blessing. I couldn't have asked for anything better. I didn't know how much of a difference it would make being a swipe or a tap away from a community of moms, but it has helped immensely.
The support is amazing.
And next time he gives me shit, I'll remember to practice my left hook👊🏾🤣
@joan32393, I've had my bouts of depression before I even got pregnant but these crazy ass hormones made me dip so low, so quickly. It was scary. Thank God I learned beforehand that the most important thing is having a support system and (at the very least) good coping techniques.
I'm climbing, girl😩. The hill just seems super steep...muddy.
I literally would have lost my shit on him and told him if he could "suck it up" after being pregnant for 9mnths, pushing a baby out of his body, and now have to deal with extra hormones, taking care of a baby and having an unsupportive spouse. I'm sorry you are having a hard time. We all go through these feelings. I deal with it a lot. You'll find a good support system on here which is what you need. Don't be afraid to ask for help if you need it. And if he gives you crap for having a cry...deck him lol
I was kind of depressed too. I felt restrained. I spent a lot of time on this app and in bed. No one knew because I'm home alone a lot. Just think of it as a hill to climb.
@mommakarmaa good :)
