“I can never get pregnant and have children”

“I'm in this situation because I was protected years ago and I didn't want children”
“I'm being punished”
“I started treatment late, I should have started earlier” p>
“I am a complete failure and flawed both as a man/woman and as a wife”

Our emotions, our mood, how we feel What determines it is the meanings we attach to the events and the thoughts that the events create in our minds, rather than the negative events themselves. Accordingly, we can eliminate the negative emotions they make us feel (such as fear, anxiety, anxiety, sadness, etc.) by changing the thoughts and perceptions we create about the events we experience.
Most of the thoughts written above are distorted and unrealistic thoughts. . In other words, they are unproven statements that try to take over the mind in times of stress. They make us believe that they are realistic so much that they can penetrate our lives as strongly as a belief.
The only way to get rid of them is to replace these negative thoughts with more realistic ones, that is, to restructure them. For example, the thought “I can never get pregnant and have children” should be structured more realistically as follows: “I am currently facing the problem of infertility. I'm doing everything I can about this. By receiving treatment, I increase my chances of getting pregnant and having children. However, I also need to be open to other possibilities. What does the future bring? I can't predict it now.”
Restructuring negative thoughts may not always be easy; Therefore, it would be useful to seek the help of a psychologist or psychiatrist who specializes in cognitive behavioral therapy.
