Just a drop-in. I think about you guys every single day, multiple times a day. Seriously. I just haven't had it in me to post lately.
DH and I had our first couples counseling appointment last week and the therapist referred me to a psychiatrist 'cause she wants to have me evaluated and put on meds. I agree with her. I haven't seen the psychiatrist yet, but I will soon.
We're still trying. This cycle has been REALLY wonky. My OPKs have already been light, almost positive, light, almost positive, light, almost positive... It's weird. And of course this would be the cycle that I decide to try temping orally, AND I've only taken my temp 3x since AF, so I don't really have a baseline/pattern to go off of...
Life is just getting rough lately. Mentally, I mean. Life itself isn't bad at all, I'm just not coping anymore. I love you all very much, I'm just not here much to say so. I've pretty much lost interest in most things I enjoy, so I guess that's why I haven't been here.
I might start coming back regularly once I get on some meds and my moods level out. I hope. For what it's worth, DH and I just had a great weekend in Chicago at the wedding of a lifelong friend of mine. It was fantastic. Now, back to reality.
Hope to talk to y'all again soon. You really do mean so much to me, so, so much. I just haven't had the strength to be around lately.

Love you Erin.
I am so sorry you are having a hard time. But I know I would be the same way given the same situation.
my recent events are starting to wear me down as well and with being on a TTC hold I just feel like I am stuck in time now.

Hi. I have been stalking you on facebook. It sounds like you are on the right path to getting the help you need. It took me a long time to come face to face with getting help and getting put on meds. After I started feeling better the only regret I had was waiting so long to help myself!
((hugs)) you are very loved.

So sorry things are rough but so very glad that you are getting some help and hopefully will start feeling better soon. Its so hard sometimes to go it alone. I had a counselor after my second loss. I just couldn't handle it alone anymore. Even with JM I needed that extra. We will still be here when you are ready to come back .
