Humans new parent thread

I’m feeling that way a little bit tonight too, so I feel ya. I’m not generally depressed or happy or anything. I’m usually blah. I had a med reduction recently though, so maybe I am having emotions come back. Don’t know if this is a good thing or not :confused:

I feel ya on the wanting to sleep as well. Iook forward to sleep tonight and a reset for tomorrow. I hope that you are able to get some.

If you are feeling suicidal or having a mental health crisis, please tell someone — a friend or family member, a teacher, a doctor or therapist or call 911 (if you’re in the U.S.) or the Emergency Medical Services phone number in your country.

You can also call a crisis intervention hotline—these are available in the U.S. and in many other countries. You do not need to be actively suicidal to benefit from a crisis hotline.

For me I think it’s the lack of sleep getting to me or something…

I can relate to this. My daughter was sick from very early on after she was born. She was in pain and would cry incessantly. This went on until she was 8 years old and finally got the treatments she needed. Then we began the recovery process. She’s physically better now, but has ptsd and an anxiety disorder from how the drs treated her until then. It really sucks.

Ugh. I might ask my mom to take the night shift tonight. I was getting creeped out and seeing shadows move out of the corner of my eye last night… fml. And I thought I saw someone standing out in our yard (it was just how the tree bark on the tree looked or something)
