I had 4 sessions with a bereavement councellor in January after my first stillbirth which I found very odd but quite helpful I think. To be honest I only went because I thought it was the 'right' thing to do. Since my second stillbirth at the end of May I haven't had any councelling because I haven't wanted to - I wanted to deal with it in my own way.
I struggled after the first month with PMT on top of how awful I was feeling anyway. I was prescribed anti depressants. These have definatley helped - the PMT has all but gone - this is a serious life changer for me - but this week i have been feeling extremely low and have no excitement about anything and frankly can't be arsed. I want to run away and I've cried loads today. I know that this is all 'normal' etc etc, but I'm wondering if councelling would be beneficial.
My mum feels that going over old ground doesn't necessicarily help - it just keeps the wound open as it were. Just wanted to ask anyone what their thoughts on councelling are....
thanks
