Mental health

Just wondering how everyone takes care of their mental health during this.

I am overweight and can’t conceive as I don’t ovulate. My GP nor hospital (UK) won’t do any investigations until I have a bmi of under 30. I am 34 years old so time is running out.

It’s hard. I am struggling to lose weight. I feel a huge amount of guilt as it is my fault we don’t have a family, my husbands family constantly ask us when we will have a baby. We haven’t told a soul and I don’t want to.

I know weight is a huge factor. i am at my biggest but I didn’t even have a period when I was slimmer. So I am worried it is something else. Apparently I don’t have PCOS although I argue I do, but tests said no.

I can feel my mood slipping and I have never experienced this before. I have never felt so alone and useless. I don’t want to meet up with friends as I feel disgusting. Normally I am really sociable, fun and friendly. Now I feel like I stick out and feel in the way.

My husband is amazing but I have haven’t told him how I feel, I don’t want to put that on him too.

I didn’t mean for this to be so much of a rant, I am just interested in how other woman deal with this.
