But there are things you can do to stay sane while trying to conceive. Here are a few tips:

1. Allow Yourself to Grieve

It's important to allow yourself to grieve the loss of your fertility. This may involve crying, talking to a therapist, or writing in a journal. Don't try to bottle up your emotions. Let them out, and allow yourself to feel the pain.

2. Focus on the Positives

It's easy to get caught up in the negative aspects of infertility. But it's important to focus on the positives as well. This could include spending time with loved ones, pursuing your hobbies, or volunteering for a cause you care about.

3. Make Time for Yourself

It's important to take time for yourself each day. This could involve reading a book, taking a bath, or going for a walk. Do something that you enjoy and that helps you to relax.

4. Surround Yourself with Supportive People

Surrounding yourself with supportive people can make a big difference in your emotional health. Talk to your partner, friends, family, or therapist about what you're going through. They can offer support and encouragement, and can help you to feel less alone.

5. Consider Therapy

Therapy can be a helpful way to cope with the emotional challenges of infertility. A therapist can provide a safe and supportive environment where you can talk about your feelings and work through your emotions.

6. Take Care of Your Physical Health

It's important to take care of your physical health when you're trying to conceive. This includes eating a healthy diet, exercising regularly, and getting enough sleep. Taking care of your physical health can help to improve your mood and energy levels.

7. Be Patient

Conceiving can take time. It's important to be patient and not give up. Stay positive and keep trying. You may have to try different fertility treatments or lifestyle changes before you're able to conceive.

8. Be Your Own Advocate

If you're struggling to conceive, it's important to be your own advocate. Don't be afraid to ask your doctor questions or seek out additional support. You may have to push for the answers you need, but it's important to get the help you deserve.

Infertility can be a difficult journey, but it's important to remember that you're not alone. There are many resources available to help you cope with the emotional challenges of trying to conceive. By following these tips, you can stay sane and keep your hopes alive.
