This isn't what I expected

Beitrag von Steffy »

Hallo Ihr Lieben!

This isn't what I expected von Karen Kleiman lese ich gerade. Ich weiss leider nicht wie es auf deutsch heisst und ob es das ueberhaupt auf deutsch gibt. In diesem Buch habe ich was gefunden, was ich mit Euch gerne teilen moechte. Es ist auf den ersten Augenblick ein gute sache. Fuer mich zumindest. ABer bestimmt eine harte arbeit. Es tut mir leid das ich es in english schreibe. Ich hoffe trotzdem ihr versteht es einigermassen.

Negativ

1. I am having trouble accepting that I have PPD
2. I am ashamed and embarrassed that I have PPD
3. I must have done something wrong to make this happen.
4. If I were stronger, PPD would never have hit me so hard
5. I can't tell anybody except my husband that this is happening to me
6. If I hold on a little longer, maybe this will go away by itself
7. I must be a weak person
8. I could never see a therapist for this because that would be admitting
that I am not in control
9. I can snap out of this if I try harder

Positiv

1. I have PPD
2. What I am feeling are symptoms of this illness. I am not making this up
3. Bleak as life seems now, this pain will not last forever
4. I am not going crazy
5. This is a real illness, and it can be treated
6. I didn't do anything to make this happen
7. This is not my fault
8. I may have bad days and will have some good days. I will not always
feel like this
9. I can choose to be active in the course of my recovery and help myself
feel better.

Negativ

1. I like to be in control at all times
2. I should always enjoy being a mother
3. It is important that people tell me that I am doing a good job
4. If I have bad feelings toward my baby, I am a bad mother
5. If I look good from the outside, everyone will think I am doing fine
6. If I ask foer help, people will think I can't do any of this by myself
7. I certainly should be able to keep the house clean, do the laundry,
make dinner, and take care of the Baby - like everyone else
8. I should feel loving toward my baby and my husband at all times
9. No one understands what I am going through
10. If I express my fears and weakness, then I will be admitting that I am
strong
11. If I admit that sometimes I don't feel like taking care of my baby, then
I could not possibly love my baby
12. If I decide to do something just for myself, then I am selfish

Positiv

1. I am doning the best I can
2. This is going to take a long time, wether or not I try to speed it up. I
must take one day at a time
3. I cannot expect too much from myself right now
4. It si okay to make mistakes
5. There will be good days and bad days
6. It is okay for me to have negative feelings. If I fight having these
feelings, it might take longer to feel better
7. Even though I feel so bad, just getting through the day is prrof of
my strength. I can be proud of how much I have accomplished when I
get through the day feeling this bad
8. I know some of the pain I am feeling right now is part of the recovery
Process
9. Today, when I am feeling bad, I know that I will not feel bad all of the
time. This is just a bad day. I will get through this day the best I can.
I will try to rest . I will pamper myself a bit. I will treat myself well
because I deserve it. ANd I will wait this out.
10. Some of what I am feeling is just like what other mothers feel. Not all
of my feelings are symptoms of PPD. All mothers on new babies feel
tired, irretable, or stressed at times.
11. It's okay that not everyone understands what I am going through. I
still have a real illness that is treatable, even if other people don't
know anything about PPD
12. I will feel like myself again.

Es tut mir leid das es so lange geworden ist. Ich werde mal versuchen mich daran zu halten (haha). Falls es fehl am platze sein soll, oder ihr das alles schon kennt. Loescht es einfach wieder. Ist ok.

Hallo Ihr 2!

War kein problem das hier reinzuschreiben. Mir hat es nur etwas angst gemacht, weil es halt in englisch ist. Naja. Ich hoffe es kann euch helfen. Ich bin noch nicht ganz soweit.
