She is wanting to die herself and i cannot bear to hear her say things like that. I know she is grieving we all are but i know not as much as her. I do know how she is feeling cause i have had miscarriages and i had a daughter that was killed by a drunk driver. It took me a long time to get up out of bed but i didn’t want to die cause i had my son to think of but how can i make her see that dying won’t help her in the way she thinks it will?
I am afraid she will hurt herself. I don’t know what to do. We are very close (we are only 17 months apart) so we have always been close.
I want to help her but she won’t let me in
They gave her an anxiety pill and sleeping pills but she hasn’t gone back to the doctor cause we just buried “Alexandria” 2 days ago
This is my 5th pregnancy I have had a stillbirth 1st preg then 2 children and then three months ago had a miscarriage and just found out am preg again. My third preg had serious depression stemming from my 1st loss . Was finishing a pregnancy loss bible study when I had my miscarriage and am just worried that emotions will be crazy with preg now. Has any one had a similiar experience to mine? Please I would like to know someone who can truly relate to me
I HAVE BEEN MARRIED FOR A LITTLE MORE THAN A YEAR. OUR MARRIAGE STARTED OFF ON THE WRONG FOOT BECAUSE WE LOST A PREGNANCY THE MOTNTH BEFORE OUR WEDDING. MY NOW WIFE FELL INTO A DEEP DEPRESSION. SHE BECAME COMPLETELY OBSESSED WITH BABIES. AFTER THE MISCARRIAGE THE DOCTOR HAD TOLD HER TO BE CAREFUL AND NOT GET PREGNANT UNTIL AT LEAST A YEAR PASSED FROM THE SURGERY SHE HAD. SHE DID NOT LISTEN CHANGED DOCTORS AND WENT ON FERTILITY DRUGS WITHOUT EVEN LETTING ME IN ON IT. WE HAVE BEEN SEPARATED MANY TIMES BUT GET BACK TOGETHER MOSTLY BECAUSE I FEEL PRESSURED AND BLACKMAILED. AND TO ADD TO THIS SHE HAS BEEN PUTTING ON POUNDS SINCE WE GOT BACK FROM OUR HONEYMOON AND CONTINUES TO MAKE HERSELF LESS ATTRACTIVE, NOT ONLY PHYSICALLY BUT AS A PERSON FOR ME. I DON’T KNOW WHAT TO DO NOW SHE IS TWO MONTHS ALONG IN A PREGNANCY THAT I AM NOT READY FOR AND DOUBT SHE IS. SHE WAS SUPPOSED TO BE BEING CAREFUL(USING BIRTH CONTROL) BUT CONTRARY TO THIS SHE WENT ON FERTILITY TREATMENTS BEHIND MY BACK. NOW I’M TRAPPED.
I have been battling this addiction for over 4 years now. I started out taking a 1/2 of a 500mg vicodin once a week, just when I got a really bad tension headache. I quickly realized I felt “good” when I took them, so gradually started taking more often. That continued for about a year & a 1/2. Then I got pregnant. I was able to stop cold turkey, however I did take a total of about 5 pills throughout my whole pregnancy when aches & pains were really bad. I have always had a high tolerance for pain medications, so otc tylenol DOES NOT help me. So the minute you deliver a baby, guess what, they prescribed me a shiny new rx for darvocet. So since the day my baby was born in Aug. of ’07, I have not had 1 clean day. I have extreme depression, & little to no help or support from my husband. The pills make me feel not so sad, & gave me the energy I needed to “handle my business”. Over time my habit has increased tremendously..& I’m now taking at least 20 10/325mg Norco daily. I do have my own rx, but that lasts me all of 4 or 5 days, so then I start my “hunt” for a score. I buy 4 different peoples rx’s & am spending over $700 monthly on just the pills. Not to mention that while I’m on pills I smoke a pack a day, drink red bull & Starbucks like there’s no tomorrow, & have manic shopping habits. I have NO self control. My habit is costing my family everything we have. We can longer pay our bills, & my kids don’t have a mommy. The energy the pills used to give me went away a long time ago, now I barely have the motivation to shower. I can’t live like this anymore.
I have hit my bottom, & I HAVE to quit.
We can’t afford rehab, & my husband makes to much $$ to qualify for any special “scholarships”…so basically I’m screwed. The other night I decided to talk to my G’pa about helping us to pay for a detox program. It was one of the hardest things I’ve ever had to do. My G’pa thinks so highly of me, & to tell him that I’m a drug addict was so painful. He has bailed us out sooooo many times financially in the past, he just can’t afford to pay for it. I should’ve asked him for help a long time ago…but…woulda, coulda, shoulda isn’t going to help now.
So I basically “told on myself” so now I have no other option BUT to quit. Since I can’t afford to pay for rehab, I have to do this at home. The plan is, my mom & husband are going to take a week off work & basically nurse me back to health…but I’m SCARED!!! I’ve heard so many horror stories.
I’m writing this in hopes that someone out there has some advice for me. I’m terified of the pain, diahrrea, nausea, bone aches, insomnia…all of it. I’ve read all these “recipes” that are supposed to help with wd symptoms, but believe it or not, I’m scared of taking drugs…I know funny right. I would like to be able to do this with ibuprofen, tylenol pm, immodium, & hot baths….but is that just ridiculous for me to even think that possible?? I don’t want to use suboxyn, or valium or any other substance to wd because my addictive personality will become addicted to them..I just know it.
If anyone out there has any advice for me..PLEASE help. I’m planning to do this the week after Thanksgiving, I would like to be back to my normal self by Christmas.
The idea of going into labor can be frightening. It can help to know more about what may happen. ――――――――――――――――――――――― WATCH MORE PREGNANCY VIDEOS! Click Here: »»» pregnancy.healthguru.com
I was 22 weeks gone when I lost my baby, It was an overly painful experience and something that i know will be with me for the rest of my life. However I’m not moving on at all. The miscarriage was 3 weeks ago and I’ve become a complete emotional wreck. I’m crying for the most part of my days, and im not sleeping or eating much. I was meant to go back to work but on the morning of it i had the biggest panic attack and found myself curled up in a ball in tears for hours unable to move.
My partner thinks I am suffering from depression as i have mildly suffered from it for most of my life but have never been diagnosed with it, or taken anything for it. I went to the doctor and was told that it was just normal and i could be like this for another 3 weeks.
Does anyone who’s actually been through this know if it is normal. I feel like my whole life has ended and i just don’t know how to kick start it into going again. My partner was heartbroken at the time seems perfectly fine now and doesn’t understand why I can’t carry on. Any advise would be more than welcome.
