How did you partner cope through the journey? I shouldnt be feeling nervous about our 2nd cycle but I am, I am dreading it as its stress/arguments/getting our hopes up maybe for nothing.dawnybabes said:I’m all for Xmas but really ? Far too soon 🤣🤣
have your clinic got a support group ? Our clinic did so we could talk to people who ‘got it’0 -
Definitely do the over the phone thing, apart from anything else you need to speak and they may have details of face to face groups.
Try and have a good break.
NB, I don't know your industry but is I possible to look for other work? Permanent nights sounds horrendous.0 -
Oh, and in case you didn't know, depression is a known COVID symptom. Possible COVID is affecting you mentally as well as physically.

I’d like to think we sailed through it but we didn’t ! Both of our stress levels were through the roof. Just remember ‘this too shall pass’ - fingers crossed for you both xSealed pot challenge 822

I have had depression on and off for years and pre covid. I went through a type of therapy called EMDR last year that helped alot but I think when we start IVF again I am gonna do something. Work have offered counselling.peb said:Oh, and in case you didn't know, depression is a known COVID symptom. Possible COVID is affecting you mentally as well as physically.

Thanks Dawny I will keep telling myself that. At the minute its hard as me and my partner are not ourselves we had a blazing row the first day we were there ie our break away. We got back to the hotel and it continued.dawnybabes said:I’d like to think we sailed through it but we didn’t ! Both of our stress levels were through the roof.

We have started cycle 2 on Friday wish us luck.
I have signed up for some counselling sessions at work to try and minimise arguments. lol
Money wise everything is good my dmp with S.C. has four payments left I have took on a secondment at work so my salary has gone up abit i am back to paying close to 900 a month again. I made a payment of 750 to it on the first of November and next months payment is alot higher. Its nice having 5 debts with balances of 50-100 quid and this little lot which come the first week of December will be gone.
I have 5 debts with balances of £2.71/ £6.98/ £7.77/ £9.50/ 11.32 All of these next month will be gone looking at the payment history then I just have 4 biggies of 500 plus.
Surveys I havent done alot i just havent being in the mood i need to get my finger out with Xmas coming, I have sold three things on vinted which is good skinny french connection jeans gone for 8quid and I sold a pair of my other halfs jeans for 12 quid.
Everything else is going fine I will try to keep posting where i can guys but my o/h and me have literally just start ivf at the weekend. I am stressed to bits already but praying for an Xmas miracle.

Money wise everything is ticking along nicely I have just sold two bits on Vinted today and yesterday so thats 17 quid coming in for a coat that doesnt fit me, and 7 quid for a pair of jeans that doesnt fit.
