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.
I can't believe how long I've let my kids disrespect me, talk back, treat me like shit and yet I still let them get away with everything.
My depression and anxiety has worn me out and I have no strength to fight with them over the battles of getting to school, homework or chores. All my daughter wants to do is work on her social life and all my son wants to do is play computer games.
This is why pdoc has talked about hospitalization because I just can't cope with life anymore, and the everyday shit is getting to me.
I can't cope with my kids and my live in boyfriend does nothing to help out. He comes home from work goes straight upstairs for a nap, comes down for supper and then back upstairs for the rest of the night, other than when he comes down to go outside for a smoke.
I hate my fucking life and I just want to give up.
I have nothing worth living for.

it sounds to me instead of giving up you need to get MAD and put your feet down
take the control back from the kids and the b/f - take away the v/games things like that
good luck
It just seems to keep getting worse instead of better. I want to just run away. That is all I could think about today what it would be like to run away. I watch a movie about a woman who killed herself by a train and thought I could do that.

but you kids may not act like it but they do need you
I know they need me but it is so frustrating.
could you talk to the kids tell them their is going to be some changes and you bf tell him he has got to help
and you know what? It happens MORE OFTEN than not.
sad.....
Honestly, with my b/f I think we sadly we are close to splitting up again.
I tried reconnecting with him again, but with not much response. He seems to have "shut down" and this is what happened the last time we were together. He has told me he won't do anything that has to do with my kids other than on the nights I have to work.
Like just a few minutes ago I asked him about sex, something he never seems to want anymore which is extremely unusual, and I said we never have it anymore and he just said "no". Just like that, end of it.
I'm afraid to be alone but I'm afraid with my anxiety to keep going like this too.
I feel so fucking out of control.
it better to be by myself than with the wrong guy
