Getting Help

Today seemed so good, but then my faulty brain kicked in yet again, and it came crashing down around my ears. Tonight I called to be sure my insurance covered a therapist FavoriteOB recommended. They do. Tomorrow I'm calling to make an appointment with her. I've been trying to do it on my own for too long. I need help.

I have definitely been where you are. It is so difficult. I know that seeing someone really helped me. I sorted through so much crap and cleaned house in my life. I've considered going back now that we're actively TTC again. It made a big difference. I hope you have a positive experience with it.

I know it's tough to try to sort out all those feelings and figure out where they're coming from. Take it from me - a therapist and/or some anxiety meds will certainly be helpful to put those feelings into categories and deal with them. Hugs!

It is so damned hard to ask for help. I know that was THE HARDEST thing for me. But, once I did ask for help, I just wondered why it had taken me so damned long.

There is absolutely nothing wrong with doing this for yourself. If I could afford a therapist, I would've started seeing one even before I got pregnant! I've always been a very anxious person with certain OCD tendencies and it gets worse when life stresses me out. I hope your therapist is a good fit for you and you start to feel more in control of how you're feeling. XOXO
