IUI-IVF and mental health.
I don’t know if I’m asking for advices or if I just want to vent because I’ve been feeling so low for the past couple of weeks. I started my first IUI on December and I had to buy a sperm donor since my husband was diagnosed with azoospermia. It took me a while to stop mourning and grieving the fact that I was not gonna have my husband‘s children. I finally decide trying IUI and got my first cycle on December but I got a negative result then I tried again on January and again it was negative, so I needed one month break. I asked my doctor if I should try IVF and she said that as she doesn’t see any issue on me, I should wait and try again another cycle of IUI before doing something more invasive so we are doing my third cycle of IUI this Friday.
My stress, anxiety and depression are affecting me and my relationship with my husband. I don’t know what to do.
I just want to know if there is anyone who felt the same way? What did you do to feel yourself again? How did you survive this sadness?? Or am I the only one feeling this way?
