Omg I am so sorry girl that really sucks
Venting on life. Emotional support?
I’ve never really had an issue with depression but I feel like these last few weeks have me there. So many different reasons. I guess the most recent reason is a lost two beloved pets not even two weeks apart. I had one dog for over 5 years and he just died in a matter of hours not sure why. And it would’ve cost to much for a autopsy to see what happened. And then my dog of 6 years got into the road and got hit by a car. And I know they are just pets but I’m 25 and they have been there with me for all of my growing up decisions. They were my support team and now it’s like I don’t have that extra boost to make me happy.. less recent still relevant to why it hurts so much to loose my support team.. I am in a great relationship and have been for four years now and for the past two we have been trying to have a baby. Followed ovulation, went based on when I felt like I was the ovulating, spur of the moment sex. Unplanned spontaneous. Nothing has worked. My period also has not been regular for the past year. Like it will show up a week late. And twice it didn’t come for entire months. Negative test after negative test gets me so down but before I always had my fur babies still and now I didn’t even have them. Now I am three days late negative test. And I have no one to talk to. I can talk to my man but he gets upset about it too. And we are still going to continue to try. But I’m just so depressed right now. I don’t know how to find my happy place. I deleted Facebook because of all the negative news stories and things people post because it was making it worse for me. I just dont know what to do right now.

The first dog my family got as a family was Lucky, who we got when I was 5. He died at the old age of 9 in the beginning of 2017 from cancer. He would’ve been 10 in May. That was my freshman year of high school and everything just went downhill. I was in denial about my depression, but then sophomore year comes around and I finally realize I have depression. I am currently in my Junior year and we had to put down Lucky’s best friend, our cat Katie. She died of kidney problems. Both of them were a part of my life for more than half of my existence. They were like siblings for me and my older brother, but all things good come to an end. I recommend adopting another dog, or even starting over and getting a puppy. We got our puppy, Douglas, when Lucky was 6 and he’s been the “man” of the house since Lucky past. He’s a baby, and super terrified of literally everything- I could go on and on about him but I’ll spare you the novel. My point is, Douglas has made grieving a lot easier. Not to say we don’t miss Lucky or Katie. They are still in our hearts and we miss them everyday, but it’ll get better in time, but Douglas has pawed his way deep into our hearts, and we know losing him will be harder than anything we’ve come across. Embrace your puppy with all the love you can offer and more, and cradle him/her with everything you can give and when you think about your dogs, think of all the happy memories instead of how they died and how close together their deaths were. Everything will be just fine.
