Some days I have good days and some are bad. Bad days are really bad. I lash out and cry uncontrollably. Today was a bad day. I know it gets easier, but when and how??

" Hey I'm sorry and I know the feeling somedays I'll think that I'm on top of the world and nothing can fase me but the very next day I can be crying uncontollably. I don't thing you ever get over it but it does become easier to cope, I have set a goal for myself to be positive no matter what I know it sounds lame but it really helped me , I'm still going through sadness and horrible days but it helps me focus.I really pray you feel better and take time to mourn your loss...
Praying for you "

" Honestly, it really depends on the person. For me, it took a couple of months before I slipped out of the depression. I still feel sad ocasionally, but it is much more controllable now. "

" It did get easier for when about 8 weeks later. However, I still have my bad days. Like Sunday could be a bad day. Just take one day at a time. "

" I'm so sorry that you had to go through this. For me things didn't start getting better until after my due date (7 months after the miscarriage). After I got threw that day I felt more at peace with everything. I still have my moments where I feel depressed and cry but it doesn't last as long as it used to. You'll never "get over" this but you will learn how to handle it better. When I have my bad moments I just remind myself that Morgan is in a much better place now and she is watching over me. She's not gone for good, she's still here and I will see her again someday. I am here if you ever need to talk. Feel free to message me at any time. Take care of yourself :) "

" I'm sorry for your loss. I know how difficult it is at first. Every minute feels like an hour and every hour feels like a day. It feels like time will never pass and you will never feel any better. You will though. I have to agree with the others here that the grief never goes away, but you get more in control of it as time goes by. It has been about 9 weeks since my m/c and the first few weeks were just brutal. I still have days where I lose it (like today for awhile), but there is more time between those episodes as time goes on. Just keep seeking support and working through your grief and time will start to pass more quickly. Hugs. "

" I'm so sorry-- I just answered your advice request and I had hit the "back" button on my browser and ended up getting your profile confused with a woman who had posted that she had just miscarried. I just answered trying to give advice about the initial shock of miscarrying. Then I realized afterwards that you lost your baby in January. I'm so sorry for the confusion and I hope you are feeling ok today. Great big hug to you. "
