Lonely after getting married

I am 26 years old, married for two years, but have not held a wedding in the groom’s family because my mother-in-law thinks it is not necessary now. Mom loves me very much. When I was pregnant, my mother often called and promised to come back for a week or two to take care of me (during the pregnancy). My husband works in another province, so from the time I was elected to the time I gave birth, I was almost alone, crying, feeling sorry for my children and loved myself. I often feel sorry for myself, struggling because of my skin, but in a room of 15 m2, the parking space takes up all the way. I always look forward to the day when my mother-in-law comes back to play, even if it’s only for a day or two so that I can be less lonely in a small room in the middle of a crowded street. That day finally came, that was when I gave birth to a six-month-old baby. Me and my husband and children went to play with her. My mother-in-law treats me like a daughter. I always respect, never speak ill of or criticize my husband’s family to anyone.

>> Lonely when living next to her husband

Her husband always loves and takes good care of her children. I just don’t pay attention, wherever he falls, he will frown and say I don’t pay attention when looking after him. When I go for a walk, I want to eat at a restaurant (only dares to think about once a year), he knows and will quickly take me to a popular restaurant, like that is enough to warm my stomach. It’s not that her husband doesn’t make money, just not as much as he expected. The economy we built together, we don’t have a house, but I will pay for the minimum needs and don’t want my children to suffer, live too frugally from a young age.

Really, I’m falling into a post-marital crisis and postpartum depression. I can’t predict what can happen in life but everyone wants a better life. Now, I can’t replace my child with a qualified father and mother. I will have to work harder for my family and myself. But really, there are times when loneliness and sadness are too great to make me fall. What should I do?
