Thank God I’m feeling absolutely fine, but my friend? She is going through absolute hell. She can’t stop throwing up and she’s sleeping constantly—you can literally see the chronic exhaustion etched all over her face. And then, you have people turning around and saying, "Oh, you're just pregnant, you aren't actually sick..." Honestly, it’s driving me crazy. It’s as if unless you have a massive baby bump, you aren't a "real" pregnant woman and don't deserve any empathy. People are actually mocking her. She can barely even stay on her feet because she feels so miserable, yet she isn't even able to take medical leave. It's just infuriating.

It sounds like you’re dealing with low blood pressure, which is likely why you’re hitting such a massive slump. Whatever you do, don't try to drown that feeling in alcohol; trust me, it only makes things worse. I went through the exact same thing myself. Once that depression really took hold of me, I quit smoking on the spot, and I haven't touched a cigarette since.
