Sever depression during pregnancy?
I am currently 13 weeks pregnant, and I have honestly never felt this depressed before in my life. Nothing really big happened to lead to me being severely depressed, just an argument with my boyfriend that I blew way out of proportion. I now get hurt over every single little thing he does, even if it is not that big of a deal. I have been crying for the passed 2 days and I am currently extremely depressed. I have no idea what is going on. There really isn’t anything wrong, but at the same time I feel like everything is wrong. I’m constantly having thoughts about suicide and I cannot concentrate on anything. I have been in bed all day crying and laying down. I lost all of my friend once I got pregnant, and I don’t get along with my family very well. My boyfriend is really the only thing I counted on but he is being extremely unsupportive. He won’t even talk to me or call me and he is very annoyed by me and my depression. He pretty much thinks i’m crazy and he told me he cannot handle me. I would expect him to be here for me but whenever i’m sad or depressed he just wants no part of it. I also currently have a fever of 100.3 and i’m starting to hallucinate a little bit. I keep on seeing my bedroom door swing open and closed. Can anyone please tell me what I can do?

definitely talk to your ob about this. they are trained in this as well, as many pregnant women experience depression. make sure you tell them all the details, because stress on you means stress on baby!!
the symptoms and scenarios you are describing are definitely something a doctor should know about. i’d love to give you a home remedy, but dealing with depression is nearly impossible alone.
Its hormones! they are uncontrollable at the moment, I was depressed too but when i got to 23 weeks and my hormones started to settle i was absolutely fine! best thing to do is just to ride it out until it is over. I would avoid anti depressants but if you feel like you dont want to live anymore get straight to the doctors!
Drink lots of smoothies, they boosted my energy loads which helped my mood!
I agree with mama T. You need to see a doctor. It could be hormones but with the symptoms you are experiencing you need to talk to someone. You need to feel some kind of support. I have suffered from depression before and now that I am pregnant I also have constant sadness and a few suicidal thoughts but I talk to my family and husband about it and they’re a great help. Being sad and crying all the time cant be good for anyone….trust me…I know what that is like…
Definitely go see a doctor. Hope you get the help you need for your sake and your baby’s health and well being.
