• The General Mental Health Forum is now a Read Only Forum. As we had two large areas making it difficult for many to find, we decided to combine the Mental Health & the Recovery sections of the forum into Mental Health & Recovery as a whole. Physical Health still remains as it's own area within the entire Recovery area.

    If you are having struggles, need support in a particular area that you aren't finding a specific recovery area forum, you may find the General Struggles forum a great place to post. Any any that is related to emotions, self-esteem, insomnia, anger, relationship dynamics due to mental health and recovery and other issues that don't fit better in another forum would be examples of topics that might go there.

    If you have spiritual issues related to a mental health and recovery issue, please use the Recovery Related Spiritual Advice forum. This forum is designed to be like Christian Advice, only for recovery type of issues. Recovery being like a family in many ways, allows us to support one another together. May you be blessed today and each day.

I'm only functioning on nausea pills. I have 7-11 months of school left and I'm self employed and I'm sick all the time. I'm only back in school cause my science degree couldn't get me a job. Im in the US. I have no savings it all goes to rent. My SO was just laid off our state is at will. I'm like what am i gonna do.

I have 3-5 days for my pills to ship here I can't pick them up they take the edge off but I'm like how am I gonna take care of this baby at all!

And no it wasn't really planned.

I can try to get another low wage pharmacy job maybe work from home and take calls in between throwing up. I'm just like I hate that i live in the U.S. right now. And hate that im pregnant. Not smart at all. I'm so mad some women arent sick at all and I have extreme sickness.

Obviously you have consulted your doctor?

I saw my obgyn they gave me bonjesta. The medicine kind of helps but I have I to andtake it twice a day and on bad days i still vomit i take 700mg of chamomile in pill form 4 times a day also. I made an appointment with my primary care for the 20th of this month that's more than 2 weeks away it's the earliest they have. I'm out of medicine for 3-5 days. I basically just vomit or dry heave all day. I'm useless while sick. I'm pretty sure this isn't just your normal "morning sickness" it has to be HG.

This is the time usually people would feel very depressed and unsure of what to do. Any form of escapism may seem to just as good as the guided method of handling difficulties in life.
I happened to watch this video and although it is about alcoholism, it explains the very crucial reason why people fall for unhealthy coping mechanism
