Housekeeper???? Want to work for me LOL, Sorry for being a smart@@@. I see a lot here in such a short post. Have you seen a doctor? Stay away from the closet. Post whatever you want here. Very sorry that you are having to live like this. I myself do not know why people put each other down. Not good. These put downs really really feed our illnesses. Is there anyway that you can sit down with one family member at a time and explain your illness to them? If not find a doctor to talk to and take one of your family members with you and have them explain what depression is. Not sure but mybe you can find a book on depression at a library and have them read up on it. I wish you well, hope things get better soon, post as much as you like. If you get close to the closet. Get help, 911, a hotline, come to PC or go to your local hospital. Try to have a happy holiday..
