My youngest daughter has a little bit of anxiety. I fear that she got it from me. I have pretty deep depression and a lot of anxiety (and bpd and self harm)......

Yes - it is bothersome.

My daughter also has one friend (sarah) who has some depression issues (her mother is an alcoholic and her home-life stinks). My daughter has another friend (jessica) who is a self-harmer (her father is detached and can be verbally abusive).

Each of those friends have (on occasion) asked to sleep at our house - so they did not have to deal with there home lives.

My point is - there are a lot of us with "issues". I hope you can see that.

BTW- I have told each of these gals that they can stay at our home ANYTIME they need. I may have my issues - but I want these young people to have some safe refuge. I hope YOU have a safe refuge too.

Gods blessings to you.
