[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Does anyone else feel like this process just hits them harder than it should and yet they can't snap out of it? That's how I feel. Like rationally, I can see in theory how one should have perspective that other things in life are good- one's husband, job, the health of one's parents, etc., things to feel lucky about, and that in theory this will work out eventually, but the misery of it while you're in it and the lack of control and the monthly roller coaster just gets me irrationally crazy. Anyone else? and DH totally doesn't get it or sympathize[/quote] I am completely irrationally crazy and understand where you are coming from. Last month, I felt constantly anxious about the whole thing, and having that anxiety was upsetting to me. I tried to put everything in perspective (at least, my husband tries to get me to put it in perspective), but it didn't work. This month, so far, I am calmer. The first few months I tried to eat pasteurized cheese, not a lot of drinking, deli meat, etc, just in case I got pregnant. I particularly didn't drink a lot in case it would hurt my fertility. Well, that clearly didn't work so to de-stress this month I have decided to have a glass of wine a night (or when I am in the mood). I think my mental health and lack of stress is the most important thing at this point.[/quote]
