For the sake of my mental health, I’ve decided to let myself dry up. Every single time I pump I am literally so miserable - like some of the worst depression I’ve ever felt. And breastfeeding at the boob is so exhausting due to latching issues among other things…

I feel absolutely terrible. I’m able to produce so I feel like I’m wasting this opportunity. I know there’s NOTHING wrong with formula feeding and everyone tells me to put my mental health first… but I can’t help but feel like a failure somehow… I guess I’m just venting here because I feel like no one in my personal life wants to listen to me whine.
