I'm sorry that you are hurting right now. It sounds like you do care about your roommates child. I hope that you can find some peace very soon.

Have you thought about volunteering, or looking for a job with an animal shelter? You mentioned before that you take care of quite a few animals on a daily basis.

Yes what about working with horses???? Volunteering for the disabled riding come to mind when I saw your user name....

There is also equine psychotherapy around now that you my get a lot of. Maybe work out paying off the therapy by doing odd jobs with the horses...Win win.

I'm so sorry you feel so bad right now. And you're right, you don't want to traumatize the children, or anyone. Can you get out and do things to help ease your mind? Maybe volunteer somewhere. Or join a club to meet others. Or go for long walks. Anything to get your mind off the sadness. All of those things help me. I hope you feel better quickly.

Do you see a doctor or a therapist? Are you on meds? Seeing a doctor is a good place to start to develop a treatment plan, you don't have to suffer like this. I know what it's like to want to die, feeling like you can't go on. You need help, make a doctors appt asap and be honest about how you're feeling. Meds may or may not help you but they saved my life and are worth looking into. It can be a long road to wellness but the sooner you start the journey the better. Big Hugs

Working a job might help you. I know how you feel, I go to that dark place sometimes, but working with children at my church has helped me reduce anxiety and depression symptoms.
