I saw your post and totally relate. Right now I cry at the drop of a hat, even reading other peoples' posts that echo how i feel. My mom's getting dementia, both my parents are in their 80s, I now only have my sweet daughters half the time because of shared parenting with a very hostile ex-husband, I moved recently, and other stressors pile up and make me feel like a mess. The thing is, so many of us (like moms and children of the elderly, for example) DO have a lot of reasons to feel like this. I'm starting therapy & treatment, and I just try hard to get through each day, each week, and hope that the worst of the emotional storm passes.
