Hi
Thank you for opening up—it sounds like you’ve been carrying an immense physical and emotional load for a long time, and your body is trying to signal that it’s overwhelmed. What you’re describing is a complex interplay of postpartum hormonal shifts, emotional trauma (especially after an abortion), nutritional depletion, and possibly chronic fatigue or somatization linked with depression or anxiety. Many women face similar struggles, but what makes your case unique is the layering of both physical and mental symptoms—body pain, fatigue, vision changes, irritability, mood swings—all pointing toward systemic burnout. When the body doesn’t recover fully postpartum and is subjected to harsh dieting, overexercise, and stress, it can literally shut down its energy systems.
It makes sense that some doctors have referred you to a psychiatrist—not because “it’s all in your head,” but because chronic emotional strain can show up in the body. The anger, heavy head, fatigue, and pain are very real, and they may stem from a deep nervous system dysregulation. What you may need is an integrative approach: gentle therapy to process grief and rage, possible low-dose medication to stabilize mood and sleep, alongside physical rehabilitation, nutritional support, and lifestyle changes. You’re not broken—you’re just in need of a safe space to start healing, slowly and gently.
Take therapy, and you can connect with me on nine two six six seven two six zero six five.
