Don’t feel guilty, it’s completely normal! You’ve been stripped from all your freedom your social life has gone you can’t even take a bloody shower without asking permission like of course you’re lonely. It’s okay for dads they ain’t gotta worry about being available 24/7 for their babies. If you ever need to chat I’m here x

Totally normal… it’s a whole new life your living, different from what you’ve known for a long time. It takes time to adjust and specially when all the visits start to drop off and everyone else goes back to ā€˜normal’ life. I got really down but then found this app, got some good advice, tried new things, got my shoes on went for walks, got out to the charity shops, went for a coffee with a book, make the most of it because it doesn’t last long enough. ā¤ļøā¤ļø
