Let's see what do i have to be depressed about- i can sum in up in 2 years- 2006-2007 just about killed me- it was a real emotional rollercoaster-it all started August 18th 2006- thats the day i will never forget and wish had not happened- thats the day my mom lost her battle with colon cancer and passed away...not a day goes by that i don't think of her and wish she was still here with me- i lost a mom and a best friend ... it was truly one of the worst days of my life... at this same time my boyfriend at the time - had a heart attack and was in critical condition- thankfully he pulled through and was doing great- but then we stopped talking and to this day i don't know if he is dead or alive- i really couldn't deal with it at the time and i do want to know- but have no way of contacting him or his family.... my best guy friend- confesses that he loves me and always has - but we can't be together because he has a girlfriend and he can't break her heart- so i said i understood although i still don't... 2007- while visiting a friend i got addicted to 2 drugs- 1 illegal and 1 prescription and i am proud to say i haven't touched any kind of drug since August 07- Go Me!/ i was threatened by a friend of a friend - he said he was gonna set me on fire and throw me through the window of the house and he wasn't joking... i was beaten and almost raped by a man who was the cousin of my best guy friend- he got mad cause i didn't love him and so i had to have my sis rescue me from that situation.... i met a man who i thought was great - he turned out to be a married lying jerk and we had an on again/ off again relationship for 7 months- he has gone back to his wife and now i sit alone and depressed and there is a 50/50 percent chance that i'm pregnant - if so - its his baby and i don't know what i'm gonna do.... i have bill collectors calling me looking for him- insisting he gave them my cell number as his own and i'm having to live with my sis and i'm 24 , i'm broke, looking for a new job, have no car, and i'm a big loser...... so that about sums up why i am depressed... any questions or advice is welcomed .....

First of all you are not a looser!!! this is the way my 6yr old grandson explain'sit " I know i am special because God don't make no junk" I have been where you are many times, maybe not the same problem but same results. Try prayer!! I am not pushing my idea's ok? but I feel I must tell others because God has saved me so many times. I still get depressed and when I am feeling there is no future and no peace in sight you can just say to yourself over and over " Jesus Jesus " if you are doing this you cannot think of all the things wrong in your life ok?? this is my belief and I am not trying to push my belief on you or anyone else - I am just telling you what helps me when I get those feelings that I cannot take what life is dishing out. Even if your beliefs are different from mine I still want to be your friend because I know the pain of depression - to me mental pain is way way worse than any physical pain you suffer.

Tackle one problem at a time. When you resolve one, you will feel good and have more faith things will work out. FIRST YOU NEED TO TAKE A PREGNANCY TEST, SO YOU WILL KNOW WHAT YOUR OPTIONS ARE. Hang in there!

    Food Allergy?

    My 6mo twin DD's are EBF and just started rice cereal on the first. Everything has been going fine except this morning one of them had a diaper rash (lots of redness around her anus). I read this as one of the signs of an allergy. BUT I did just buy a different brand diaper yesterday (which they have used randomly before w/no issues). Do you think its the cereal or the diaper? Im ready to start...
