Hang in there sweetie. I've been depressed since I was a very small child, but my parents didn't do anything about it cause they were too busy drinking. I didn't get any help until I was in my 20s, married and found my own therapist. Thank God I did, cause I was about ready to go over the edge. She put me in a mental hospital for 2 weeks (well, I signed myself in but she suggested it). It was the best thing I could have done for myself)

I stayed with that therapist for a year after getting out of the hospital and was doing great. I don't need to give you my years of therapy, but there IS light at the end. You have to have hope and FAITH!!

I'm so sorry to hear about your dear Mom. I know that had an awful effect on you sweetie, but it need NOT affect your future. It has NOTHING to do with YOUR future unless you let it. You have your own future, and it's what YOU make it! You have the POWER to make it wonderful and I know you can. Do it for your kids as they deserve it as YOU DO.

People DO CARE about you. WE care about you very much. If your meds are NOT working, then tell your doc that they need adjusting and now!! Tell him that you feel awful and you cant keep feeling like this and you want something done! We're behind you totally, so never feel like you're alone because you're NOT. Keep postiing sweetie. We're here. God bless you and take care. Hugs, Lee
