Question

How do you know when you have depression or something of the like after a loss? (MC end of Feb) I'm for the most part positive but I'm really struggling. I feel irrational, angry, frustrated all the time. My husband has been more than supportive, but I still have a lot of trouble coping I think more than he knows. I don't feel like myself at all.

Answer

I have had 6 miscarriages and each one was as hard as the first.  How you feel is completely normal and ok.  The grief comes in waves.  There will easier days then others.  My last one was in December and there are days I am still a mess.  I don’t think the pain ever really goes away but you learn to live through it.  My husband is very supportive like yours.  Keep talking about how you really feel and don’t hold back.  I find that helps.  Don’t give up hope!

Answer

You get diagnosed by a doctor it cannot be self diagnosed

Answer

I genuinely think I was depressed for the first 3 months post MC. I miscarried in November and at the time I thought I was myself and doing fine but months later I look back and realize I wasn’t at all. I was a wreck. It can be good to speak with a therapist or councilor and just take it one day at a time. This cloud will lift eventually, hang in there.

Answer

I think not feeling like yourself can definitely be a sign. It’d be good to see a therapist just to see.
I’m sad a lot, but I mostly have felt like myself. I had a rough situation last month that seems to have changed things for me, so I’m making an appointment. I think just talking will be helpful.
