I was watching the story about Eric and his family, and I began to cry. I thought about all the feelings and emotions I had been experiencing, and that is when it hit me that it was time to tell
someone.

After receiving an IUD after having my first daughter, I noticed my hormones were off and I was getting anxious and agitated. However, I brushed it off and went on with my life. A few days later
I noticed I was just feeling sad and unhappy with myself and my appearance; I tried to ignore my feelings. I returned to work, but noticed that I was emotional. My significant other could tell
something was wrong. He asked me if everything was okay; I told him I was unhappy with my appearance and myself. After listening to the story about Emily and her babies not having their mother, I don’t want myself or my family to go through that.
