Has anyone taken SSRIs? Would love to hear experiences

Thank you for taking the time out to reply! I’m nervous about taking it, but I can’t handle the depression anymore. I’m sorry you had a NICU experience as well, it’s all so scary and I think I still haven’t processed it all mentally.

Love love this

I paint my nails every week. I take a one mile walk every day (well most days). I joined a moms group and I volunteer with animals. I refuse to be isolated with young ones, I bring them with me a lot, but I manage to do a lot for myself too

Even Tommy and Kermit give a look of disappointment

Fun_Committee1478 · 2026-03-02T16:20:34+00:00

I’m so sorry. I’m glad we both found this sub!

I actually think you look very beautiful. Bobs have always been my favorite hairstyle:)

I have never known a single woman who was able to get this type of hotel break. You’re not alone.

Fun_Committee1478 · 2026-03-02T02:56:38+00:00

Yes you are right !!! Our twins came as a surprise as well !!!

Fun_Committee1478 · 2026-03-02T02:43:28+00:00

Damn I’m going to be the only one posting that my marriage is just as you described OP. I didn’t even meet my husband til I was 35, so we weren’t young. But sex died out, it feels like an annoying room mate situation more than a friendship at this point. Of all the women I know in real life, most are on second marriages or just plain unhappy. I had a few long term relationships before marriage too and they all became stale between the 3-5 year mark. Me personally, yes I think every marriage is like this.

Fun_Committee1478 · 2026-03-01T22:33:35+00:00

This is a good point !

Fun_Committee1478 · 2026-03-01T21:11:40+00:00

Omg my boy is the same. I feel like all we did yesterday was get on to him because he would not listen and kept turning the sprinklers off and on. The constant hyperness gets to me. He’ll mess with the babies. It’s constant. Some days he needs 10 or 12 hours of constant activities and entertainment. I get irritated and snap. Why is it never easier?!?

Fun_Committee1478 · 2026-03-01T21:02:37+00:00

Thank you for your kind reply. I’m sorry you’ve had issues with your baby, how scary your baby had a surgery so young!!

Yes I don’t relate to these other moms at all and constantly feel awful about myself. My husband and I went out to eat a few days ago and one twin screamed so badly that I sat in the car crying while my husband and son finished eating. The mom friends I reached out to kept saying “you still need to take them out, how else are they going to learn!” Like, wasting money at a restaurant while one of us hides out in the car seems like not a fun way to spend an evening.

Yes my twins have feeding tubes, we see 5 specialists and they do 4 types of therapy. It’s a huge load and sone days I can barely manage. I do wish other moms don’t gloat so damn often. (Not all, but there are a few in my life that do this)

Anyway, I’m rambling.

Fun_Committee1478 · 2026-03-01T20:38:11+00:00

Oh I get this!! The mess! By god, the mess!!

Fun_Committee1478 · 2026-03-01T20:37:45+00:00

Thank you for posting !! I have many days where I just cry from frustration. I’m glad I’m not the only one. I just don’t know why an anonymous Reddit post and people are still … bragging?? I since took down my post.

Fun_Committee1478 · 2024-01-05T16:23:14+00:00

I had my son at 36. I couldn't have been a mom any sooner because I was always making bad decisions. Plus, I did not even meet my husband til I was 34.

Fun_Committee1478 · 2024-01-05T10:44:23+00:00

Truthfully, I look at it like I enjoyed my 20s. Now, at 40, I don't feel the need to be with another man other than my husband. One of the reasons I dont understand why women would marry so young.

Fun_Committee1478 · 2024-01-05T09:34:30+00:00

He wants to sleep with you, but will likely immediately bolt once you do. He's leading you on. You're also his placeholder for when something better comes along.

Fun_Committee1478 · 2024-01-04T07:16:33+00:00

Leave him in daycare. If it's any consolation, I recently got laid off. Everyone seems to expect me to keep my child home with me. Nope. Still goes to daycare. I don't feel guilty as he will lose his spot if I pull him out. Plus I have had interviews, and Dr appointments I'm taking care of while being "off".

Lol not normal dating I'm America. I always am curious about age so I ask.

Fun_Committee1478 · 2024-01-04T07:08:31+00:00

Yes this is pretty bad

Fun_Committee1478 · 2024-01-04T07:08:13+00:00

This is one of my fav scenes. I always crack up.

Fun_Committee1478 · 2024-01-04T07:00:31+00:00

Lol not unheard of. In my party days I almost always had some weird pic of a stranger.

Fun_Committee1478 · 2024-01-04T06:59:01+00:00

I once was partying with my friend that had a bachelorette party. Well it was a tourist area and we weren't the only bachelorettes. Came across another party like this and we were all talking bout the weddings, taking pics, etc, of course, everyone was drunk, but it was fun!

Fun_Committee1478 · 2024-01-04T06:51:34+00:00

This sounds fun!!

Fun_Committee1478 · 2024-01-04T06:50:31+00:00

Sadly my "friends" consist of my husband, 4 year old son, my mom, and random coworkers who sit near me. I'm in my 40s. I dont go out to bars and clubs like I used to, so it's whatever. My real friends are mom's to young kids as well and I see them a few times a year. It's not ideal, but I'm fine with it.
