I'm being treated for the depression and anxiety with my primary care doctor but everyone keeps telling me theres nothing they can do for bereavement. Its so diheartening. I tried going to a grief therapist but it is so expensive and without all those people around its just me and my fiancee in a new home we just purchased and I'm the only one working and its just part time because I cant handle any more than that. I just wish I had my mom.
It's unfortunate help can be so expensive.
You have endured a lot of losses in a short amount of time.
Sometimes Pastoral Counselors will make their services available for free. They often deal with grief... and with couples. Just a thought.

I do understand as I had lost several family members in a short amount of time, too. It takes time to work through the grieving process.

I hope your fiancé can find a way to understand your grief, which is compounding your depression and anxiety.

Have you ever looked into NAMI? They offer support groups and educational programs for families. www.NAMI.org.

Don't give up. I have survived with grief and treatment-resistant depression for over 40 years now.

Keep posting. Keep asking questions and seeking answers.

The main Depression forum can also be very helpful. Lots of good people here, hoping to help.

I will check back in.

I hope you can get some inner peace and some rest.
