As a 35-year-old man, I never imagined that I would be experiencing pregnancy blues. This has been a challenging time for me as I support my partner through this incredible but emotionally taxing journey. I’ve been feeling overwhelmed, anxious, and sometimes even guilty for feeling this way. However, I’ve come to realize that it’s okay to feel this way and that it doesn’t make me any less of a supportive partner. I’ve been seeking out support from friends, family, and online resources, and it has made a world of difference. Talking about my feelings and finding healthy ways to manage stress has been crucial. If you’re in a similar situation, know that you’re not alone. It’s important to reach out for help and take care of your mental health during this challenging time.
