Depression/ Partner Support

I am experiencing some depression. Is anyone else out there experiencing this during pregnancy. I feel really alone and like my partner doesn’t fully understand what I’m going through. I’ve expressed this to him and he says sorry but then makes comments like, “it seems to be a common thread that you think people don’t understand what you’re going through” and doesn’t really do much to change. I’m struggling. Maybe it’s my hormones going out of wack. How do you all feel about this?

I will definitely get a therapist. I just am Feeling like walking away from this relationship. We were already having a hard time before I found out I was pregnant. Would any of you be upset about his comment?

Hey I have went through the same with telling my partner how I feel he cared for a little and then didn't, when I started to go to God more often then people I feel more at peace because I know God cares about what we have to say 😊🙏

I got a therapist cause I feel extremely isolated. My partner has been great but sometimes I just can’t help it. I think it has a lot to do with the hormones. I can NOT wait to not be pregnant. I dealt with it before pregnancy but found out it was due to PCOS and an imbalance of hormones so I’m sure with the hormones being all over the place it doesn’t help.

Hey for hormone balance try incorporate avocado's , coconut yougurt and nuts and seeds 😊

I don’t think he is a narcissist. But I definitely think that was unkind.
