Depression Support Group
Depression is a real and debilitating condition that is often misunderstood by family and friends. Its meaning can range from a prolonged period of sadness to an actual mental illness with specific symptoms. Find and share experiences with others who are going through the same struggles.
Look after yourself to!
do you say anthing to them when they criticize? like, "well, you do it then". it feels good to put people in their place, only if they deserve it.
hugs. i wish you could sleep more. i guess there's no nurse that can come help give you some relief. you've got your hands full.
Tonight, I'm going on 2.5 hours of sleep. I have to make breakfast, cut the lawn, do some shopping make dinner (I made fish last night, which I don't eat). That is, if my father is awake. I don't like going anywhere if my mother is going to be left alone and I don't like going anywhere if my father is asleep as the medical problems have caused him to sleep a lot.
Are any family members sympathetic to your efforts? Perhaps they can explain things to the rest.
Best wishes for you!
