Um, I was pregnant back in july-august but I miscarried. And well since then my period hasn’t ended…[[That has nothing to do with my question, and yes it has been constant for 6 months..doctors wont stop it, guess there is something they can do to make it go away..but..I'm 15 and I havent had a baby yet so they wont, anyways]] Well lets just say me and my boyfriend broke up..

Any-who, Well seeing as I’ve been on my period for this long time, every time I have to change tampons or think about how I’m on my period, it angers me and depresses me because I think about the miscarriage and the only one I can really talk to who understands my sadness is my ex-boyfriend. And not only is this depression from the miscarriage effecting me, its also making it extremely hard to get my ex out of my life. [[I've been trying to do that but when things get hard, I feel like I need to go to him because he understands me when it comes to that]]

(im on her account because I don’t have one)

my girlfriend had a miscarriage and she’s been really depressed about it. today she was so upset and started accusing me of cheating on her because ‘I’ve been acting strange lately’. I haven’t been treating her any differently. she says that I’ve been not really wanting to talk to her lately, and now when she goes to sleep, I hang up as soon as she falls asleep (we stay on the phone at night so she feels safe), which I have been doing but because I can’t fall asleep without my radio or tv on and she can’t stand the noise of either of it so I hang up so I can turn it on and go to bed. I don’t know what to do for her. I got mad that she was accusing me so I told her it was her fault for the miscarriage, because she puts stress on herself by starting a fight. I didn’t mean it, and I feel terrible about it. how do I make it up to her? the next time ill see her is on wednesday but im afraid our relationship is going to be strained by then if I don’t do something to make her feel better, im afraid she’s gonna cut (she used to do that, but stopped when we started dating) or drink or begin using drugs again. she used to be such a bad person but she changed and im afraid because she’s in such a depression from the miscarriage, that she’s gonna go back to her old ways.

please help, I need to help her and I don’t know how.

I really need to vent here…my friend just had a new baby and I had a missed miscarriage 3 years ago at 3 months pregnant. I just balled my eyes out the other night and I find myself wanting a baby more than anything right now. I really miss my baby and I don’t know how to explain it…its like my soul aches. I am not complete. It hurts…I went through major depression after my miscarriage but i’ve been doing better but lately I just feel myself slipping back into the grief process..i am beginning to get angry again when I had already made my peace with God. I am 23 years old and my boyfriend (who i live with) does not want a child right now and I know we cannot afford one right now…I just dont’ know how to cope with this especially since the child was not my boyfriends (it was my ex-boyfriends child)..he will not understand what I am going through. Well Thanks for listening to me.

Okay since my last question I’ve received the results from the MRI which shows that I have a bulging disc. I’ve gained a lot of weight in the last year and am now dieting to lose it. Will this alleviate the pain and/or shrink the bulging disc? It takes a month to get an appointment with my doctor and I’m just wondering now. I’m scheduled for a visit with the neurosurgeon and want to avoid surgery if possible. Any advice? Please help. I weigh 225, am a female at 5’6 and just take 30 minute walks for exercise to help release some of the pain I feel. I was 195 lbs. but gained the weight after pregnancy which ended in miscarriage and depression. I’m back on track now but afraid. I know that the weight didn’t cause the problem but I’m wondering if losing weight will resolve it somewhat. The pain radiates down my right leg but feels better after I walk…sitting makes it feel worse. I’m 43 years old and a teacher. I used to wear heels to class everyday but won’t do that again.

Well I had a miscarriage 5 years ago. And I started to get over it after 2 years counseling and then I got pregnant again. And it started to bother me again, just scared about carrying another child. Then after I began to be confident about this pregnancy, after 3 years, the man who was the father of my child that I miscarried just got back in touch with me. Now the depression is coming back. Anyone else see the cycle?? If it’s not 1 thing, it’s another…

I have quite a story to tell you. Read carefully. My mother and father live with each each other as well as me in the same house. Yet my mother has long-term depression and is on almost every anti psychotic, anti depressant thats on the market. Trust me I am a pharmacy technician, interestingly enough. Basically when she was young she had a miscarriage, was raped, parents left her for her “husband”, and she cant seem to move on from the past. The perfect candidate for a depressant according to the books. Now my mother and father are divorced but they have been living together for past 20 years. Its very complicated I know, sorry. She has been getting bad suicidal tendencies, last night she was about to Overdose on her medications, because she could take “life” anymore. Suicidal thoughts are more recurring than ever before. I thought about signing her to a facility for a vacation from work etc. But I don’t think there is an answer to this except live with it, what do you think? Thanks.

If you had your cholesterol checked and didn’t really cut out the bad stuff can you clog your arteries in a few month timespan? The reason I am asking is I had a high reading in March and have been going through a depression from miscarriage and pretty much have been eating bad foods. I am back on track and it’s September now, but could my health be turned around? Could I have done a lot of damage in that period of time??

I am a strong person but I am not sure whether my fatigue and tearfulness is due to depression or illness. I have had two miscarriages back to back, other personal problems and work problems and family pressures. I feel fatigued from midday to exhausted at 8pm and weak and want to sleep. Been to the gp who did thyroid and full blood tests for hep c and b and the full works. all came back clear. I have a hormonal imbalance with a cyst on my ovary, but other than that, I have no explanation.

I am not a very emotional person but at this moment (11 weeks preggo), I am like in a roller coaster of emotions. Sometimes I feel up and okay….and there r times when I feel so down and just cry.

I am presently still dealing with my heartbreak – breaking up with my baby’s father and him accusing me of deliberately getting myself pregnant.

I am just worried that my depression can affect my baby. Has other women felt this? And can depression heighten the risk of a miscarriage?
