Question:
Answers:
i feel your pain. i went through a time when i felt the same way but i didn't have children.
try to write it all down in a diary and when thats filled burn it! and try to let all of your ill feelings go up in smoke with it.
your children love you and that is amazing that you get up to be with them. they ar your pride and joy and you love them not nearly as much as they love and look up to you and cherish you!
be brave and talk to someone you trust or a complete stranger if you feel up to it. everyone goes through this to some extent but just know your not the only one that feels this way. :)
smile. someone loves you. very much
what you need to do is have confidence think positive..talk to some one u can really really trust.sit down...get it of your chest or else it will ruin you...
talk to me i get you dogmicjoe@yahoo.com
im so sorry ur feeling like this. it really does sound so horrible to just feel... not right everyday.
it really does sound like ur depressed tho. im the daughter of a psychiatrist, so i honestly believe that u could benefit from a visit to a psychiatrist. if not, @ least go to the doctor and make sure ur physically ok, becuase i have heard of depression iflicting serious physical problems.
i dont want to sound like im trying to guilt u into it, but if ur kids are noticing that ur not feeling the same, u should get checked out for their sake.
if u REALLY are opposed to it, try to spend a day of pure relaxation all alone. it may help u feel better...
my mom was diagnosed with depression way before she had me and i have gone into her room wen she has forgoten to take her meds and it hurts even me and wen she has taken her meds she's alot happier and can do more stuff with me and my brother the only problem is the short term memory loss but weve grown so used to it we make fun of it now and trust me for your childrens sake go just tell them ur not feelin well and ur going to go to the doctor but ur gunna be fine! make that perfectly clear. trust me i no how ir feels to have a mom thats sick alot and so i can tell u from experiance that ur kids dont like to see u like that and it hurts them to see that. get help. at least for ur kids.
May I ask why are you scared of professional help and medications? Is cost a issue? I'm sure that there are low income facilities where you live who will assist you.
Not a cost thing? Is it an embarressment thing? Well I think you have to ask your self this truely tough question then: How embarrassed is your family? This isn't easy on them either, and you should go to therapy so that you'll have an impartial, steady voice listening and giving you advice. A normal therapist will be more helpful and easy to understand than a phycologist or psychotherapist. They won't bring it all back to your mum or whoever... they'll try to steer you in the right direction to reslove whatever it is that you need. Going thru one would probably even avoid youhaving to take meds. You would maybe only need to take them for a few months or so anyways. You don't stay on them forever, and no one ever has to know you take them. Although meds merely rewire your brian fluid level thingies... I don't pretend to be an expert. I've just been thru it too. Therapist worked for me. Meds didn't. It was a forgien system that I had to deal with in my own way... such as you will have to do now.
Not doing anything will make your situation deteriorate faster than you can imagine.
you can talk to me. just click on my avatar.
I feel the same way at times. Getting out of bed is a killer for me, like a hammer to my head but usually when I get out of bed is when my 3 year old wakes up and comes to tell me to wake up. I have a husband who tries really hard to understand. I do take medications which, if I take properley, work all right. I also can not sleep with out a sleeping pill. The thing in my brain that tells me to go to sleep is broken. I have some things I would like to talk to also so if you ever want to talk you can email me.
