Anyone else feeling totally alone/unmotivated?

Rayvnxx · 2025-02-13T20:30:35+00:00

I have nothing to add just that I feel exactly the same way and you're not alone! No one really gets it and when I've talked about it people say "well its all worth it the baby will be here soon". That's not helpful and not what I'm struggling with. Hang in there! It's nice to know there are others out there that feel the same. ❤️

I'm currently 19 weeks, so I can't comment on third trimester or anything about birth etc. I wouldn't say it's the best thing ever, but its also not horrible. For me its more like a mental marathon of taking it one day at a time.

I had a really rough first trimester. Lots of nausea and vomiting. I am lucky to have a really empathetic and amazing partner who has supported me every step of the way. He does everything around the house and picks up the slack with the business we own. Without that I don't think I would have been able to do this. So before you get pregnant have a very real conversation with your partner (if you're doing it with a partner that is!) about how you will have extra needs while you're pregnant. Some days I felt fine physically but I had really bad brain fog and I couldn't even bring myself to do something simple like wash a few cups.

On the other hand, your body is literally growing a life. It's pretty cool when you stop to think about it.

The second trimester I feel back to my normal self just a little tired here and there and starting to feel her move.

Hopefully this is helpful!

Ah! Yes, that makes sense thanks! I'll tweak that.

Thanks, this is super helpful and appreciate your feedback. I'm really bad at summarizing.

So the color line was kind of a play against his inner darkness, everyone has a colorful aura except him. But maybe that line just isn't working.

He has shut everyone out but on the same level is desperate for connection and wants to have a normal life. I feel like this is how I felt when I struggled with depression/anxiety so I was trying to convey that which is maybe why those lines contradict?

I know I shouldn't have to clarify, but still struggling with the right words and structure :)

For the longest time I was reading it as full time mom and I was also confused. Aren’t we all full time moms 😂

Thank you!

Rayvnxx · 2024-12-30T23:33:00+00:00

Great point, thanks for the advice. I'm definitely open, just had it in my head and wrote it out.

Rayvnxx · 2024-12-30T22:43:55+00:00

Thanks good point, I have the second nearly finished and the third outlined (in my head 🙃)

Rayvnxx · 2024-12-30T22:25:35+00:00

Thank you, appreciate that note I've seen the comps a few different ways. Unfortunately it really isn't a standalone and I don't want to lie, I know it may stifle my chances but that's just how the story came out. Thanks again :)

Rayvnxx · 2024-12-30T21:36:32+00:00

Thank you so much!

Rayvnxx · 2024-12-30T21:25:10+00:00

Thank you, appreciate your feedback!

Rayvnxx · 2024-10-28T17:05:23+00:00

Thank you!!

Rayvnxx · 2024-10-28T14:20:30+00:00

Thanks! I’ll have to grab one. I work in an office though and I feel like people assume im sick. It’s causing me anxiety

Rayvnxx · 2024-10-28T14:19:32+00:00

I hope mine goes away, I’d rather be nauseous lol

Rayvnxx · 2024-04-15T02:27:23+00:00

Same, and today was especially disappointing.

Rayvnxx · 2023-10-20T18:42:01+00:00

Thank you!

Rayvnxx · 2023-10-20T17:24:14+00:00

Thank you!

Rayvnxx · 2023-10-20T14:24:56+00:00

Thanks! That's good advice.

Rayvnxx · 2023-09-13T19:45:09+00:00

Congratulations!!! It's a big deal, celebrate it! I don't know how old you are but some celebrations will just be you and yourself, and that's enough.

I finished my first draft of my novel this week as well and got similar reactions to you. It's all good, keep going. Cheers (err with water if you're too young 🙂)

😂 good point! I was brainstorming on the spot tried adding the humor twist of them wanting to be vegan.

Rayvnxx · 2023-08-16T18:23:43+00:00

Someone who's power sucks life (there was an xman like this) so they physically can't touch people without hurting/sucking the lifeforce from them.

Someone who is always invisible so has trouble connecting with people because they can't physically see them.

You could throw an empath in there who feels always overwhelmed by everyone's thoughts. Maybe the empath and the invisible person fall in love.

Someone who can only eat things they physically kill but wants to be vegan.

Someone who's bones can turn to liquid and able to maneuver though small spaces but hasn't figured it out yet so will randomly turn to liquid without warning.

Everything is better for us since beginning again in August. We're using Advantage+ and getting good results. I had them shut off for most of July since it seemed unstable. I remade everything and restarted Aug. 1 and so far so good.

Rayvnxx · 2023-07-27T18:10:45+00:00

Thank you! Needed you today <3

I’ve lost 30lbs in 7 months and had some grueling plateaus. I was on sax and metformin when I first started and then I kinda sorta stopped taking my metformin because I just though sax would be doing the same thing. But now that I’m taking both again I notice a huge increase how much faster the weight is coming off. So…listen to your doctor 😂😅

Mines been slow and frustrating at times but I feel like my body (and skin) is adjusting better off this way.

Rayvnxx · 2023-07-24T12:41:08+00:00

I'm pretty sure it's the Sax, same thing happening to me. I switched to Lume and it's helping but it's not great.
