I have recently miscarried my baby at around eleven weeks. Both my boyfriend and I had intended on keeping our baby and raising it. There were a lot of health complications, like preeclampsia (developed at 9 wks), constant sickness with anything I ate or drank, and placenta previa (developed at 6 wks). I had started getting healthier and feeling better, and we lost the baby 7/14/14 at night. to make matters worse, we had to wait until the next morning for the baby to be suctioned out because it was not able to be passed normally.
My boyfriend seems to have already moved on from the incident, but I am not okay. I don't sleep anymore. I have no appetite for anything. I have no motivation or desire to do anything besides stay in bed all day. I cry every day, and have had a few panic attacks since then. My blood pressure, which was once low before the pregnancy, is now hypertensive. I feel like a huge piece of me died with my baby, and I don't know that I will ever be alright again.

Now, nearly a month later, I am not better at all. I'm getting ready to return back to school, and I don't know how I am going to handle being away from home and alone.

It was not supposed to be like this

In 2014 I met the most amazing man ever. We were both in our very early 20s and were looking for different things at the time. We ceased communication for roughly 6 months. During which time, he completed basic training and joined the Air Force. By the time we reconnected he was already at his first duty station.. 8 hours away.We decided we wanted to continue our relationship and proceeded to cultivate a deeply emotional connection. Regular calls and video chats, visits while he was home on…See More
