Depression

[ChandiW]

Is it normal to feel alone and unhappy during yoir third trimester? I surround myself with family and friends and then come home and just sit there and cry? I dont know why and I don't know what to do.

Yep and thats why there is these groups there are alsi ither groups out there that you can join  the important thing is that dispite the feeling of being alone and not wanting to do anything... we need ti push ourselves out the door to do something every day. It helps when you have a frirnd that lives near by. One if my best friends was my neighbor 5years ago. I was pregnant with my daughter and she would call me over every day and would not take no ad an answer.  She has moved 1.5 hrs from me nowvand I miss that intetation. Wish I had a friend closer by that would visit me more offten.

I've felt like that since I first found out I was pregnant. It got a little better in the last couple weeks. But my normally sweet fiancé is just not very supportive or attentive to me and I think he makes it worse. Ever since I got pregnant all we do is argue and I can't stand being around him. That sounds mean, I know. But he just isn't there for me. Being with my mom and friends makes me feel happier though

Thanks ladies. Glad to know I'm not alone. I was worried about ppd. But I love my baby.. just overwhelmed with so many emotions. Was not expecting this.

You're not alone! I'm 31w5d and have felt that way for a few weeks now. More recently its gotten to where I now start to tear up when I drop my oldest off at school and realize I'm returning to an empty house. I feel crazy because as much as I usually enjoy my peace and quiet, I get depressed when I'm alone and just want to cry. I'm so ready for my emotions to be stable again.

It also helps to post with other concerns.   Ive asked 2 questions on this and never got a response.   Did not help the rage, but if something I say can helo someone else I find lil happiness in that.

Me 2...25weeks and its an overwhelming feeling of loneliness.   Ive always been a person that enjoyed my solitude so this is strange. I try to tell myself mind over matter. And I will balance out. My fiancé gets concerned and wants to help, but I dont know how he can.   I just tell him to have faith and remember im mot always like this

I woke up feeling that way today :-( I really am alone though. Hubby works out of state during the week and I'm all alone with our three kids all week long. I can't go anywhere or do anything bc of all the snow and ice this winter has seriously cut into hubby's hours and we're now behind on every bill so every last dime goes to them and groceries. I'm not a super social person anyhow so feeling so lonely isn't something I'm used to or like :-(
