Hello, I just found this site. I am going through a real rough patch right now. I getting a divorce, but still living with my soon-to-be ex. We have financial issues and he is consistenly at me about money (and he makes over $1000 more than me a month). I am in another relationship but he lives 1200 miles away and its incredibly difficult to be going through this without his presence. I also have two kids. They know about the divorce but are truly unaware of any change considering we are still living together. As of right now I plan to remove the kids from the state I'm living in currently and move to where my boyfriend is at the end of the school year. My ex has agreed to this and we plan to do an academic/holiday and vacation split. My kids don't know about the move yet and I am truly struggling with the idea. This would be a 2nd major move for them in just 2 years. My ex think he the father of the year, but in reality he is truly no help at all. He's hardly ever home and when he is he basically goes into his bedroom and stays there. He never helps with homework or is there for the kids in any way except to buy them whatever they want.

One minute I feel ok and the next minute I'm a puddle on the ground. I cant seem to control my sadness any longer. I have small anxiety attacks (I've had these before) and I don't sleep well.

Anyway, I am looking for support for the depression I'm in which I believe may be situational. I was wondering if anyone is on natural/herbal medication. I have been on medication before and have nothing against it, but once this divorce does go through I will be off of inusrance and would rather not start anything from a doctor just to have to stop it again.

Anyway, thats the short of the long. Thanks for reading.
