I think I'm done and I think this is goodbye

Okay so, I got me period (2 days early) so, yes I'm out again and I'm strangely okay with it, but I think I am done with this. I can't continue every month thinking about if I am pregnant and imagining different things in my head. Its just too stressful and upsetting for me to go through this every month and read about everyone's BFP's. It just feels like too much pressure for me and its not fun or enjoyable. I think I will be saying goodbye to the TTC board and although it will be hard not to "think" about when I am ovulaitng, etc., I will do my best to continue to tell myself that "when it is meant to be it will happen because obviously, it is not to be for me yet." I will also continue to tell myself that "It is okay that a lot of friends around me are pregnant because that is what is meant for them at this time and my time will come when it is right" I cannot control or make this happen. We will continue to try around the time of ovulation, but no more stressing and dreaming or tracking or planning. so to everyone I say goodbye and good luck!! Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon

I just can't do this anymore to myself. Not another minute.

I'm sorry you are feeling this way. Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon TTC can be stressful. If you are feeling like you need a break, definitely take one. I have done the same thing from time to time. All the charting and tracking can drive you nuts. It will happen for you!

thanks! I just need to stop thinking about this stuff ALL the time. I need a break from thinking about it and if it happens, it happens.

I'm sorry that you feel so upset and stressed. Ttc is rough, especially when it takes a long time and you see so many people you know (IRL or online) have quick successes.

It might be really good for you to take a break and get away from the constant thoughts of ttc. While these boards are so helpful and often wonderful, sometimes it is a lot of pressure to think of all ttc, all the time. If you need time off to concentrate on you (and DH!) then do it. I hope you find the peace and calm you're looking for.

Good luck to you. Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon

Re: I think I'm done and I think this is goodbye

I completely understand!!! I felt the same way and I needed a break. So for one month I forced myself to not temp, not POAS and to not think about TTC at all. We were moving that month so it helped that I had a distraction.

I am sorry you feel stressed. Good luck in whatever path you take and rememeber one thing; Everything happens for a reason.

I completely understand. I had once taken a break from all of this for 2 months - although I'd be lying if I said it wasn't all still in the back of my head.

Just remember we r here if you need us. GL. Chat Icon
