Not eating... Depression?

Question

How bad is it really if I'm just super depressed and not consuming much food in a day? It's just one day. I couldn't even force myself to eat today like I normally have to do.

I also am not wanting this baby anymore.  I feel like this is the most depressed I have ever been. I never thought a planned baby would cause so much mixed feelings.

Answer

I find moods are worse when not eating properly

Answer

I highly suggest counseling. It can really help. And if you qualify for medical you can get it for free. I go through bouts of high anxiety and don't eat much. But just try and eat something high in protein and take your multi vitamin if you can. Foods important. You're mood will change in time. But maybe not till your baby comes. Best wishes. You'll love your baby once he/she gets here. It's just hard sometimes. You've got this!

Answer

Sounds like you need to seek medical/counseling help him to get your feelings under control. Good luck.

I'm right there with you hon. I've had depression as long as I can remember and I thought getting pregnant would make me the happiest person in the world. It's brought my depression back harder than ever, I've been sick for 2 months straight, and I don't even know how I can make it through the day when I wake up. Try to lean on friends and family and let them know you're having a rough time, I hope it gets better for you.

I know how you feel...I get depressed to the point of having no appetite at all either. I feel like my marriage is becoming a waste of time. My husband who's supposed to stand by my side never sticks up for me when his daughter insults me. Granted I understand she won't ever like us being together because I'm her age but we've been together for over 2 yrs now and we're having our first baby together and this is my first baby. Like get over it already. Ever since day 1 she has insulted me and never has anything nice to say. The rest of his family has accepted our age difference except her. I wish she would just keep her comments to herself instead of bad mouthing me to my husband. She doesn't know me and has only met me once. Now she's having her 2nd baby and is due the same month as me and won't even talk to my husband on the phone because of it. She refuses to accept any part of our marriage and is now trying to make me feel bad for having a baby. Well it's not going to work. She calls me a different name then thinks it's funny joking about it to him and he doesn't even say anything in my defense. I wish he'd stop being so afraid to stick up for me I feel so alone in this. Like she can just mock me all she wants and he just allows it. I've tried talking to him about it but he just makes excuses for her. I'm not going to let her ruin my happiness of having my child. It just really hurts that my husband doesn't stand up for me. I really hope he doesn't let her insult our child when he's born. If nothing else, that alone will drive me away from him. I'm so sick of it all.
