That's what I have been for a while now. I've still been doing the daily photo update of course, but I haven't really had any thoughts to post in over 2 weeks. Right after we got home from Tennessee, I came down with something nasty. I have always had a strong immune system and rarely get sick, but when I do, it's horrible and takes me down for days. This time, kit was weeks - I've still got lingering symptoms a month later. Of course my mom and dad caught it and they're in week 2 of it and now it seems as if hubby is showing some symptoms, but I am hoping his is a light cold or allergies. Thankfully, neither of the kiddos have gotten sick.
My migraines have also reared their ugly head and I have one that won't go away. It lessens and the intensity wanes, but it's always there. And it hurts. And my 800 mg Ibuprofen aren't touching it anymore. Plus, my stomach is getting messed up from all the Ibuprofen. Fail.
And I think I have PPD. I have an appointment on Monday to assess the situation and see what can be done. But the irrational fears of something happening to the boys, my crying spells, my feelings of worthlessness...aren't something to ignore. I need to get seen and I need to get help. Whether that's medication or seeing a shrink, something has to happen so my quality of life can return.
