Holly, we were all so freakin worried when you left. It was honestly out of the blue and I'm sure I'm not the only one it scared.
PM me any time, for anything.
And for the record, I'm glad you're okay.

Thank you ladies. This does bring a smile to my sad face Sad


I just want to start by saying i don't think i have PPD. But i don't know. I don't know much about it to be honest with you. But i am quite depressed. It has gotten a bit better, but i felt a bit left out, or alone when i posted my post about my fiance, and taking Sophia to the babysitters. Only 2 people responded, and i really needed someone to talk to, or just respond, and no one did. I felt awful. And maybe i'm being selfish, or dumb, but i'm sorry. I honestly don't have any friends, or friends here in my town. My nearest friend is 45 mins away, and with not having much money for gas, and traveling with a newborn it's just not something i can do right now. She has 3 kids of her own so it's hard for her too. So i come here for someone to talk to, and didn't have it. I'm sorry again.

But to explain my depression. Bills and money like everyone else. All these bills, and no money.. This last week it's been disconnect notices, and nagging phone calls. Sometimes one after another. I just couldn't bring myself to go right back to work. I thought we would be ok, but turns out we're not. These suckers just don't understand. But my fiance got his W-2 so we will be getting his return sometime next week. We did it fast return so i could pay some of this sh*t so i can get this guys off my back. So that part WILL get better. Thank god.

I was worried about my moms test she had yesterday. I posted about it a while back. About the TB.. Well turns out she does have a spot on her lung, but it's so small that they can't tell what it is, or if it's something to worry about. The doctor suggested to get a follow up in 3-6 months to see if it grows, or if they need to take a sample of it. So sorta good news there, but still have to wait 3-6 months to find out. I really didn't know if i could handle the worst with that situation right now. That would have probable took me over the edge.

It's almost making physically ill to think that i have to go back to work tomorrow, and take Sophia to the babysitters. I've been crying all morning. I hate it so much. If i only knew we would have his income tax back this soon i could have taken a extra couple weeks, or not month. I don't wanna go back. I almost want to just quit so i don't have to go in. And go look for another job in 2 or 3 weeks. You see WAY to much of the shaken baby on tv, news, or internet, and i would never be able to live with myself if something like that happened to Sophia. Chaynne said she would watch her at all times. I know she will take care of her little sister. And tell me if something is happening there that shouldn't. But my fiance has day shifts for the next month so that will help a bit. He will pick her up at around 6-7 so they will only be there for 3 or 4 hours at the most.

A lot of this has brought back my anxiety, and panic attacks in full force. They are horrible. I need to be seen for that if anything. But the pills are like 80$ for 20. Not even a full month. I don't know if we can handle that. But i think i will tell her at my 6 week check up. I go in next week i think.

And for the last part...........i'm a freaking health question and started smoking. I only have 3 a day, but it's chilled me out when i get to stressed, or frustrated. It would have been a year with out smoking on the 29th of dec for me. But i'm stupid....*sigh*...


Well there it is. I'm back. But i just needed to get that off my chest. I've been trying hard to explain, but i have never had time. I hope no one hates me, and i'm sorry for just leaving like that. I love you guys. You make my life a lot better! Very
Happy Very

Im sorry that things are so hard.

I know how you feel about the money thing. I have started making DH not spend money on himself so that we have some in savings when baby comes because I am already stressing about it at 12 weeks pregnant.

I hope everything gets better for you soon.

Oh Holly, I'm sooo sorry!!! I think, when it comes to posts, a lot of people won't post if they don't feel they have something in common with it, ya know?

It's hard to feel unwanted and unloved, ESP when you NEED people to talk/vent to!! I'm so sorry that we made you feel this way!!!!

When it comes to money, man, I think we ALL know what you're struggling with!! I know I do! Esp this month!!
Thank GOD Baron gets paid this week, cuz I don't know WHAT we'd do!!
I can TOTALLY relate to you on that issue!!

It's insane how uncaring the bill collectors can be! And they can call you at allll hours of the night!!! I had that happen to me when I didn't get my Dillard's bill a couple of months ago! And I don't answer the phone if I don't recognize the number. And of course, they don't leave a message, they just call & call & call & call!!!

I hope things start to look up for you!! It can be really hard to deal with ANY kind of stress right after having a baby. The smallest things can seem like a mountain. But we've all been THERE too!!

You can always PM me if you need to chat about ANYTHING!!

Sarah

of course nobody hates you! i'm so sorry you're feeling so down. do you have insurance? i'm just wondering why the meds would be so expensive. you could mention that to your doctor and they might be able to hook you up with some samples for the time being. a long time ago i was broke and my doctor gave me a 2 month supply of meds for free, it was just sample packs.

as for money, i hear you. we had to unplug our phone for 2 weeks because we were literally getting 30 calls a day, they would start at 7am and call right up until 10pm. it was stressful and we had no money to give them anyway, so we just left the phone unplugged. money sucks and that's all there is to it. i hope you'll get back on top with the tax return. we had to take a loan out of nick's 401k and everything seems so much better now that that's been taken care of. money is stressful! you'll probably feel loads better once you get some of those bills taken care of. it's so easy to fall behind, and so hard to get back on top.

that's so sweet that chyanne will be looking out for her baby sister. i'm sure they'll be fine with the sitter, but i understand why you're upset. at least they'll only be there for a few hours.

i'll be thinking of your mom and hoping for the best! so at the follow up if the spot hasn't grown are they just going to assume it's nothing?

i hope you'll stick around. we really were concerned when you left. we're always here for you and it's good to have a place to vent!

I guess so lol. I'm not sure. She said that sometimes trauma can cause these things. And she's gone through a lot of that with my dad many years ago. So we'll just wait and see.

what pills were you taking? I wonder if they have a generic brand on that walmart $4 perscription thing.

Money problems can really suck. I wish you had someone you trusted that could watch Sophia so she wouldnt have to go to a babysitters and cause you so much stress.
