Is anyone about for a chat? Sorry to drag an old thread up again but I'm feeling tit and don't know what to do or who to talk to
I just feel so stressed and miserable all the time. I'm constantly on edge. I feel anxious about absolutely everything. I come on here and try to be funny but I feel like I'm living a lie putting on a happy face all the time. I'm so unhappy
A few weeks ago it was because me and my boyfriend weren't getting on, we're better, he is still annoying but it's just everything getting me down. He suggested I have post natal depression. I did think that when the baby was first born but I got fobbed off because it was the start of covid. I dont think the situation with everything going on helps either
Meh

Please contact your GP office now - right now - and explain to them how low you feel abs that you need to see a Doctor as a matter of urgency. Don’t let the receptionist fob you off - but please tell them you are desperate and need help. You sound very low and I’m guessing depression is probably what’s going on. You can always talk to us on here of course but I think you need professional help xxxxx call them and let us know what they say xxxxx
Hope you're ok!!
Have you managed to speak to your GP? I don't know much about PND but I do have anxiety and it sounds like you're really suffering. They can do lots to help and you shouldn't have to feel miserable so often. I asked my GP for propranolol and they were happy to give it - it's honestly changed my life xx
Thank you, I rang them this morning and was number 7 in the queue for 40 minutes then gave up. I will ring them back, thanks for replying xx
+1 Betty who got there slightly before me! Don't suffer alone - utilise the health service as much as you can. They are there to help and a good doc will listen to you xx
Hey up, I too agree with previous posters, ring your gp, sounds like you need a little pick me up, anti depressant of some sort, I was the same with my second, I took them for about 6 months then gradually weaned myself off them, they were my saviour in some dark times. Keep your chin up lovely xx
Sorry to hear you're feeling this way Watermelon! I love seeing your posts, so I'm really sorry to hear you're feeling down.
As Betty has said, please speak to your GP and do not let them fob you off. My GP surgery has a form you can fill out on their website and you can put on there that you want a call back within 24 hours - is this something your surgery offers? It's not always easy talking over the phone so if you can at least explain it in writing in a form first it might be a bit easier!
Hope you feel better soon xxx

Can you talk a walk to the Drs and slip a letter through the door asking for the Dr to ring you asap?
I hope your boyfriend is stepping up his game a bit more now.
Do you have a health visitor you can speak to ? They may be more equipped to give post natal support than the gp ( this may vary in different regions of the country) .
I do think from what you've said on here before that there are situations at home that make you unhappy, and these feelings are valid .
Your partner can't use suspected post natal depression as an excuse for his unacceptable behaviour.
I’ve only just stumbled upon this thread. I feel for you I really do. Boys don’t sleep as well as girls from my experience so don’t beat yourself up that your friends daughter is sleeping well. Mine doesn’t sleep well either , he’s 21 months this month and will only sleep well when I’m around. He has been in my bed for a while now purely because I can’t cope with no sleep so shoot me
we don’t have a routine as such but try to but doesn’t always go to plan as always home from work at different times and so is my bf. It also took me a while for my bf to see I was struggling. They think because they are working they are entitled to be tired and we aren’t blah blah blah. Unless you have a breakdown he won’t see sense. Sit him down and explain .. don’t worry if your behind on washing. You’ll catch up. My house is a tip probably 5 days a week but it’s lockdown no one is coming round and as long as the basics are done I’m not overly bothered. How are things now? We get it in our head what kids should be like but remember they aren’t robots and can’t be forced. We don’t always go to bed at the same time as adults we don’t always sleep through the night we don’t always want to go to bed .. cut yourself some slack and your son. Get out of the house as much as you can with the pram. Makes the world of difference some fresh air

I said it was urgent and was feeling low and the receptionist was like 'there's a lot of urgencies right now' but yeah I have rang my HV and left a message. Hopefully she gets back to me, I like my HV
My boyfriend has took the baby out with the pram, luckily he can hobble well I've gone for a lie down. I probably should tidy up but ive got a stress headache and I'm tired
Thank you for all your lovely messages xx

Try mind matters you can self refer you don’t need to go through gp. I think anyway. Think it will be quicker for you. Hope you’re ok sending love.

duck the tidying up. It can wait. Rest, relax, look after yourself and when you phone the GP tomorrow morning tell them you are feeling mentally unstable and need urgent help from a Doctor.
