I originally came to this site because of my grandson and his intense needs emotional/behavioral needs. He has mellowed a bit since he began taking medication, but still is combative at school and with his younger sister and cousins (they all live with my husband and I). I have an adult daughter who is struggling with depression and beginning a very intense and angry divorce. She is afraid to take medication believing he will use it against her to gain custody of the kids. She is a great mom and he is not such a great dad. She is trying so hard and I worry about her so much. I have been taking anti-depressants and anti-anxiety medications for years. I feel so much better and am willing to take them forever. I just feel sad about my grandson and daughter (she is not his mother). I don't feel depressed, just sad and overwhelmed. I don't know how to help. Anyhow. I just wanted to check in.
