Depression and Stress
Ok, to start this out I have chronic depression. So it’s nothing new to me. Sadly though as my pregnancy goes along, it’s flaring more and more. I don’t take medicine for it do to the fact I hate how upside down it makes me feel.
This is something I’ve been needing to get off my chest and I don’t know if any one else has had to deal with this.
I live with my mother in law, my husband, his sister and her daughter. In a three bedroom apartment. It never bothered me till. I’m 11.4 weeks pregnant today. I keep seeing people talk about setting up nursery’s and it makes me want to be able to do the same.. sadly, the day we found out I was pregnant was the day my husband lost his Job. So money is beyond tight. His sister doesn’t help out much. My husband use to put over half his paycheck for food into the house. No one really realized how much till now. He was also on the disability return to work program and he lost that once’s we got married. So the rent he would pay was almost 700$ on top of the $400 we would put in food. I also don’t work because I’m in school full time and he wanted me to focus on school. I feel so lost unknowing if I will even have enough money for the basics for my new little girl.... that the stress, and depression are getting worse.any advice on how to help with it?
