[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 452904, member: 1550"] What is PND??? At any rate, that aside, I think that family counseling would help you feel better. Since i've had depression and mood problems all my life, I know how vulnerable anyone feels when he/she is depressed. If husband doesn't understand or doesn't TRY to understand, the family dynamics won't improve. I would suggest a family counselor. If husband won't go, I'd go with difficult child alone and at least try to improve THAT relationship. This is not your fault. It's simply dysfunctional behavior in which husband and difficult child have ganged up against you, even if they don't realize it. But you didn't cause it. Your family needs work, much like the rest of ours :) Keep us posted and take good care of YOU. When depressed, it is important to get out and exercise (a walk?) or isolate yourself from the stress. I had a great therapist who did cognitive therapy and she taught me not to take everything so seriously. I can actually blow off a lot these days...lol. If you'd known me before, you'd be amazed that I can do that at this time. Hey....we understand and we care :) [/QUOTE]
