Feeling lost anxious and depressed. I have been thinking lately that it would be easier on everyone if I just wasnt around anymore. Know that's not the best for my kids or is it????Depression is bad, never felt like this before. I cried so hard the other night, I thought I was going to heave my insides out. Dont know what to do. Dont know who to talk to. Tried to tell husband, he just says things will be fine. I dont feel fine. I feel terrible. Physically and mentally. Dont want to live the rest of my life this way. God I am miserable.

It would be MUCH MUCH worse for your family, to not have you here with them. Do you have a therapist to talk to? or at the very least, contact your primary Dr. right away. I have been in that very dark place--it was last winter on a couple of occasions--lasting a week or so each time. Its so frustrating, because deep down you know this is not you--not how you usually are--and its so annoying, that you can\'t \"shake it off\" as soo many people seem to think you can.
BUT I do believe it will pass. I am trying to learn that its ok to have bad days--don\'t get so down on myself when I have them. They drive me crazy, but that only makes the situation worse. I tell myself that I have a \"chemical imbalance\" --a condition that I didn\'t ask for, but I try my best every day, to manage.
I\'m not sure any of this is making any sense--its late here & I\'m very tired. :) I just really wanted to reach out to you--let you know I\"m here & I can relate to all your feeling.
I\'m sending big (((((hugs))))) your way--I\'ll check back in with you tomorrow--get some good rest-- it can really help.

I\'m so sorry you\'re feeling so bad. I also think it will pass. Please go see your doctor. Now is the time...lay it all out and do what he says. How about some ice cream and go to bed. Doctor tommorow. You will feel better. Hug!
It won\'t stay this way I promise. I am sorry you are feeling so bad. I agree maybe seeing the dr and some anti depressants? I ve just started some and I can tell a difference. I\'ll be praying for you! Hang in there. You are wanted and needed!!!! This WILL pass!
Hang in there and get to a dr! You need to take care of yourself and your kids need a mom!! Don\'t ever forget that - they\'re your reason for getting up in the morning!! (((HUGZ)))
