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.
If she's as bad off as you think she is, then we all need to watch what we say and not kill her self esteem with advice and crits. She needs support for the good things she has going. Worst thing anyone can do is tell her how bad it is that she's feeling suicidal. It's just how she feels. She can't help it. She sounds like a nice woman, and she clearly loves her kids. She needs someone to see all the good things instead of telling her what to change or how to feel or what to do (not that any of you would do that, just that that's usually what people do).
