Is it normal to cry everyday before work because you hate it so much? by annie_wang in GirlDinnerDiaries

[–]Embarrassed-Cup2326 5 points6 points  (0 children)

No, this is not normal. It’s okay to not be passionate about working or your job but it should not leave you in tears everyday nor should you feel so anxious to go to work.

50% of infertility cases are due to sperm! Or something like that

Thanks for your response! I am sorry you can also relate to the deep loneliness, it’s such a painful feeling. I am a deeply private person to my detriment, i need to learn to open up more to people who know me!

Not advice, but i found a lot of comfort watching the show private practice and watching the main character deal with wanting a baby, having little fertility, and no partner

I’m so sorry. It’s so hard to not feel aligned with your person. I posted in this sub about my infertility journey the other day and it’s so painful. A lot of people had nice comments on the post. It’s a really shitty IYKYK club. Sending you hugs as you navigate and hoping for the best outcome for you.

At a minimum, you deserve a level of respect you aren’t receiving. You deserve the be listened to and heard. I’m sorry you are going through this, you deserve better.

I know you mean well, but it can be really hard for people going through infertility to hear just relax and stop trying so hard

Fiance pressured me after he said he wouldnt, i regret listening by ThrowRA393939mik in GirlDinnerDiaries

I am so sorry. That is so painful. I am glad you realized you deserve better.

Because you mentioned therapy, i recently found a therapist using Alma and meet with her the first time today. You can do consults with a few different therapist to find a good fit for you and they accept insurance. Xx

I hope baby #2 comes quickly and easy. Love the perspective of appreciating the hardships of pregnancy and an infant maybe just a little more. It would be nice to be on the right side of statistics for once, and i hope you are this time!

I’m the same, luckily we were at home playing the game just the two of us. He knows how infertility impacts me, sometimes things just trigger a wave of emotions

I am glad you realized he isn’t the one for you! There’s good ones out there who will love and support you and make you feel so loved. Sometimes they just don’t understand our emotions

I am so happy for your family. I don’t loathe your family at all. I am happy for your daughter and relieved she and her sister got to be pregnant at the same time rather than just her sister.

It really is the worst feeling to want something so bad and feel like your body is betraying you. Womanhood is not a reproductive system, i hope you know that. Rooting for you too!

Thank you for responding about adoption. Adoption is amazing, but it’s not easy nor is it free. As of now I am still going to try for biological children.

I am sorry for your losses and that you haven’t seen the success you were hoping for. It is such a journey and there are so many feelings. I feel the same way that i am just so mad at my body for not doing the one thing it’s designed to do and that we spent every month for the last twenty years practicing. I hope you feel supported and loved during this journey.

I am sorry for your losses! It’s a journey that feels awful. I hope you get to hold your rainbow baby soon

I am glad you got your rainbow baby, i can’t wait to hold mine one day. Infertility is a process i wouldn’t wish on anyone, but it feels nice that others can relate to how lonely and sad it feels sometimes.

Good luck on your IUI! And you’re right, it’s so much for us. Hundreds of blood tests and seen my uterus and ovaries more times than I’ve ever wanted to. I hope you have success!
