I need to vent ..

I’m not looking for rude or snippy comments, we’ve all been through things and pls don’t be rude.

i got an iud put in at the bed of may. i’ve been spotting ever since i got it put in. i’ve had sex with it and a condom a few times and 1 time with out it. i’m aware that the iud is highly effective.

but i can’t help but worry. i’m so scared. i love my boyfriend and he’s been super patient and understanding but it’s gotten to the point where my fear of becoming pregnant is ruining sex for us. because i just worry.

i have some cramps, spotting, nausea, headaches, tender boobs. all of which are symptoms of my iud and then also of pregnancy. i’ve taken tests and they’ve been negative.

i feel like this iud is making things a little more nervous and feeding my anxiety. i panic. is what i’m experiencing normal? am i making these things worse by worrying? will i ruin my relationship for my man because i’m worrying? Am i going to be okay?

i know this seems so stupid to some people but i can’t help it. i have 2 different types of anxiety and depression. i’m just so worried about things.
