Interested in hearing stories from people that have experienced either positive or negative outcomes.
I’m not sure if I am struggling more than ‘normal’ and if it’s worth speaking to someone.

Hey! You can send me a message if you want to talk x

I have, I have been taking sertraline and I'm on week 6 of taking therapy. I asked for counselling as I didn't think CBT really worked for me in the past x

Hey so I just got diagnosed by my physiotherapist cause I ended up crying during one of our sessions and she referred me. The mental health team asked me some questions and it didn’t take much to tick most of the boxes. I really wasn’t feeling like I was in PPD, but I’m extremely sleep deprived and grieving my past life which makes it difficult for me to enjoy my baby. I’m also overwhelmed constantly and when he cries all day I really struggle to keep it together.
Hey! Just wanted help navigating this. Ever since we found out I'm pregnant he has not wanted sex at all. It's been a few weeks and I finally asked him and he just says that he feels weird about pregnancy sex. He says especially once the baby gets big and will be moving around. I'm only 6 weeks along and currently it doesn't look like I'm pregnant but he still seems completely turned off. I want to be respectful but also I don't want to go 9 months without any intimacy. It feels like I'm being punished and then I feel like he might go find someone else to have sex with who's not pregnant, you know? Maybe that's an irrational fear but it's making me spiral a bit.

One thing I never really expected about turning 30 was how lonely this chapter of life could sometimes feel. Not because I don’t have people who love me, but because I don’t necessarily have friendships or connections with people who are in the same season of life as me.
Over the years, a lot of friendships have naturally faded, while others ended because I realized they weren’t the kind of friendships I wanted or deserved. And while I’ve made peace with that, it doesn’t mean I don’t sometimes miss having genuine girlfriends to talk to, laugh with, make plans with, and just feel understood by.
Even within family, I sometimes find myself in a different age group or stage of life, and although I love the people around me, there are moments when I feel a little misunderstood or out of place.
I think there’s something about being 30 that makes you realize how much you value meaningful connections. I’m not interested in having a huge circle or friendships just for the sake of saying I have friends. I want genuine people, mutual effort, kindness, and friendships where I can simply be myself.
I’m incredibly grateful for the love and life I’m building, but I also think it’s okay to acknowledge that you can be happy with your life and still wish you had a few more people to share it with.
Maybe this is just part of growing up. Learning that some people are only meant for certain chapters, while still hoping the next chapter brings friendships that feel like home. ❤️
