Sad

Am not angry anymore, just sad. Found myself crying this morning, out of the blue. Just reading the paper and tears streaming down my face. No particular thoughts, just emptiness, and sadness.

I got ridiculously anxious yesterday before going to a friend's bbq for the World Cup England vs USA game. Should have been a nice thing. See a nice group of friends, be cooked for, have much needed fun. But I got all worked up about whether to go or not, and none of my concerns made any sense, not even to me.
I realise now I didn't want to face people after the failed IVF. Tell them, see their sympathetic looks, confront it in any way. One nice friend just said she was sorry and I found that I couldn't even respond to her or acknowledge her comment in anyway. I filled up with tears and started asking her about something else, something about her life. Talking really fast as if that would make it all go away.

  1. I'm sorry that you are still in such a low place. It sounds like you really need some support from others.

    I've passed on some links to you in a previous comment, so I won't do that here. I just want to tell you that setting aside a place of, or time to feel, emotions is important. Having those negative emotions, and giving yourself over to them, is your right. It's what reminds you that you exist. Hit a low, gather your strength and fight your way back to a better place.

    I wish you better,
    Lisa
