[QUOTE="flutterbee, post: 120892"] Jennifer - Go back and read your first few posts on this thread and then read your later posts. It's obvious something is going on. Whatever it is, you need more help with it than you have right now. Whether that be medications, intensive therapy or both. I have struggled with depression and anxiety for most of my life. I'm in a really good place now, but it took me years and years to get here. When easy child was 10 and was suffering from severe depression, I spiraled into a dark, scary depression myself. I ended up in the psychiatric hospital for 5 days diagnosis'd with borderline psychotic depression. I was doing the paranoia thing in a big way. My anxiety was sky high and the depression was oppressive. We cannot take care of our children until we take care of ourselves. It took me a long time to buy into that because my kids always came first. Even when my therapist was telling me that I couldn't see it - I just saw that my kid needed help and so I ignored myself. The toll is hefty. Not only on our children, but on ourselves. Please, take care of you. And don't ever apologize for posting or venting. That's why we're here. I'm glad you feel safe enough to post here about everything going on. (((((hugs))))) [/QUOTE]
