Trigger Warning* - Fertility & Life

awsomeml 2 days ago

This year, I lost my aunt in March. My mom had colon cancer and lost half of her colon and then turned around to get an unrelated uterine cancer which led to her having a hysterectomy. I was checked for colon cancer, and I don’t have it but now I need to get checked for uterine cancer, which is scary because I already have adenomyosis and I'm not sure if I'm going through pre-menopause. I'll be 39 in a month. In the middle of all of this, my ex-boyfriend of three years decided he just wants to be friends because he doesn’t want kids. Never mind all the testing I went through to see if I'm "not" fertile for him, which I found that I am & just have a low egg count. Recetly I was about to go on a date and the guy said he didn’t want to make things serious because he needs to know for sure if I can have kids. I was in bed crying all weekend. For the last two years, I had a boss who would always belittle me and recently she got let go so now we’re all trying to relearn our jobs because she never really trained us. I recently had a job interview and was suppose to have an interview for another position this morning and had to reschedule due to my mental turmoil. I feel like every time I try to do what's best for me, people feel the need to give me more grief about my life's choices. I dunno anymore, just lost.

@awsomeml This is a whole lot to go through... and to go through it alone. Sad to know about cancer issues in your family and I hope and pray you dont have it. At this stage we need our loved ones to support us and not leave us. Your bf clearly did not see the beauty within and not tried to work things out. You clearly deserve somone much better. Work issues add to the stress and I can only imagine what you are going through. I hope and pray things look up for you on all areas of life. Feel free to message me if you wish to chat/ vent in private. Would love to help out how I can. My best wishes for now ❤❤

Hi awsomeml


I'm sorry you're going through this. I do think sometimes in life, you need to be really selfish and prioritise yourself and your happiness.


Take a deep breath, and write down the things you want for YOURSELF and how you wanna accomplish them. You'll be unstoppable.


Please take care of yourself and get some well-deserved rest.
