I just felt I needed a out let

NAS81473

As I sit in my over heated flat with my baby asleep crying I really do feel alone. When the father says your not alone you've got the baby.... I can't have a adult conversation with him I can't just leave and go off. I have to stay put while he leaves as we don't live together to go home where he lives with his mother. 

I don't feel the same I feel funny about everything every thing makes me cry I am still suffering trauma from hospital from the staff not the birth 1 member staff then I spiraled I was under simulated and high on codeine general anesthetic morphine and didn't follow my autism plan or trauma plan. The mental health don't want to seem to address nor address the Postal depression. All I get is forget about it and don't have to deal with them. Or I look well so nothing is wrong.

It's not his fault the baby. I having finding hard to feel something for him. So I try say things I like about him his feet, his soft hair sensory to run on chin and he was a nice nose and hes a escape artist because his arms always out his sleep suit.

  • I am relieved that you thought of us here as an out let for sharing what a difficult experience you are dealing with at the moment - as I wouldn't want you to feel alone right now.

    A couple of years ago, I worked with a woman who struggled with things when her new baby was young.  She too described how difficult it can be to access suitable support - until that is - she contacted the PANDAS Foundation:

    https://pandasfoundation.org.uk/how-we-can-support-you/

    What she really appreciated was that you didn't always need to cave a phone conversation with them - there are a few different options of how to engage with PANDAS to explain what is difficult and to explore ways of improving how to deal with things.

    You can also download a free PANDAS neurodivergent resource:

    https://pandasfoundation.org.uk/how-we-can-support-you/neurodivergent-resource/

    There is also a download to help people talk with healthcare professionals about what is going on for them as new parents - "Our ‘I need help’’ download is a resource to help you have a conversation about the way you are feeling – mentally, physically, and emotionally – with your GP, health visitor, midwife, social worker or another healthcare professional providing you with support.".  (It is based upon the services offered in mainland England).

    Our department at work were appreciative of how the organisation was able to support our colleague - such that; we made PANDAS the focus of our charitable fundraising activities during a couple of years.

    I know how important our colleague found their contact with PANDAS - I hope that organisation might prove to be a source of good guidance and support for you and your family too.

    I felt that you wrote so beautifully about your son - I believe he is fortunate to have a mother who notices all those qualities / attributes and the unique nature of his evolving character too.

    Also, hoping you will continue to find some adult conversations helpful and friendly within our community here too.  With best wishes.
