Oh Honey, I'm so sorry for your pain. It's hard for families sometimes to see their loved ones in pain. I pray you find strength and comfort today. God bless

Maybe talk to a therapist or journal, or to a pastoral councillor?

Those are wonderful ideas.,Keeping a journal works wonders for me. A therapist told me one time to talk to a tape recorder. Let your phone tape you talking. If you can walk some it would help too (or exercise). PM me any time If you'd like.,sent you a PM.

I am so sorry for what you're going through. Chronic illness creates a depression for many people, you are not alone. I don't know if it's what you're going through but stresses or any kind can take their toll on families.

People here are very supportive, you can talk to us about things.

Sorry for your troubles. When I was first diagnosed with depression in addition to my therapist I told my friends. Not for pity but for help. I've got some of the best friends in the world and I suspect you do to. Reach out to them. They can help.
I've got one friend who is very busy but like clockwork texts me every week to see how I am doing. Another who now lives in California makes it a point to see me when he is back in Jersey. You are not alone. Open up to them you will be surprised.
Best of luck
