Sometimes the pain is to much , you cant stop crying you want to run away but theres no where to go, and you feel like giving up, But you cant because you have a family , How do people do it.

I have to agree with dilli. Our family is having a tough time too, but me more so. I am a more emotional person than anyone else in my family, and I have always been openabout it. Most of them can hide their feelings, but I need to release them.
I joined this group, I am right now going to a "live" support group. Right now there is turmoil between my adult daughter and me, (she lives with us), and some days, hubby and I both want to give up, or run away or something, so I think that I can say that Iunderstand where youare coming from.
It WILL get better and easier to go on, but that day will come later, and is different for each person.
Just do the best you can, without pushing yourself, and that is all you can ask of yourself.
HUggs, Rainbow

You just have to let the tears flow when they want to. It's tough when your family is not as comfortable showing their emotions--that leaves you to cry alone, which is a horrible feeling (I know). But it's the only way. Try to cheer yourself up with sitcoms! There is laughter through the "veil of tears".

    Why do I continue to CHOOSE depression? Why do I continue to CHOOSE to give in? Why do I continue thoughts, behaviors ad choices that lead me back to the same place that I claim to want to stay away from? Why does my sadness win? Why do I sabotage myself when I've made progress? Why do make it so I don't meet men? Why do I choose loneliness? Why does my social anxiety eat me a live? Why am I not...
