Hello. I am here for support . These groups can overwhelm me sometimes because if I join and want help, I find myself overwhelmed by people who are sick and that I’m professionally trained to care for . I struggle with depression and anxiety . I have debt , am a single mom and I work a very dangerous job . I feel so alone right now and the depression hit me so hard . I have loved and lost so many times . I come from a dysfunctional family . It did a number on me . I’m struggling and figured I could reach out and try to find an outlet for support .

Maybe seeing a therapist would help. And journaling.

I also come from a dysfunctional family. I think it is a part of our codependency... after what we go through, we try to help others so they don't have to struggle too.

For me, it would just be recently when I did finally come to realize that I also deserve better. (Spent all my time and effort giving , but getting little back... in my marriage especially)

Here I did come across many who would be there to listen, support and encourage me when I could not seem to muster the courage myself. I do think you will find that too. Welcome back.

My thoughts and prayers are with you. (Hugs too )

Life can be difficult sometimes, but making it through the tough times is what makes us stronger.

Hey, sometimes adversity comes out of no where and all at once, but this is what builds character. I believe you can do it no matter how tough it gets! Maybe find a hobby you enjoy that will relieve some of your stress, such as the gym or yoga. God bless!
