Having a child is not done due to our own needs, or to fulfill anything that is missing in our lives.... it's done because we really want to be able to give all of ourselves to a child. Children require sacrifice and 24/7 caring. You have to be ready to give up aspects of yourself along with your freedom. I would not advise having a child when your mental health is so poor... that could end up seriously harming the child.
