Hi Navy,
I got prescribed an anti depressant earlier this year after I told my GP I was really struggling – I’ve seen a lot of ladies on the forums saying they helped them. I only took mines once and they weren’t for me, I felt so drowsy and fuzzy headed the next day (they were ones you take at bedtime), I couldn’t take them and be able to think straight at work. But they must work for some people so might be worth talking to your GP about your options?
For me, my saviour was working out at the gym (my escape, the place I can go where my home life doesn’t matter and I can feel good about myself) and also eating good, nutritious food, I thought it I get physically stronger and healthier hopefully mentally I will catch up?! Going through this leaves your confidence at rock bottom, no matter what they say, you still feel like you’re not good enough, not worth changing for, it’s an awful feeling.
If your man is still drinking alcohol it’ll be a much harder battle to give it up ???? but you take care of you, it’s soul destroying to put your all into helping them if they aren’t quite there yet x
