Mistakes: drank a lot & smoked while pregnant with my daughter & she came prematurely. I had untreated bipolar. She is now 30 & doing great but has had periods of depressions so she has inherited the mood disorder from me as I did from my mother.

A month ago I overdosed on Xanax & wine (been stable for about 4 yrs.) & ended up with my husband taking me to the ER.

Feeling lots of shame. Can relate to you.--Suzy
