Hi Sherry --

Welcome to the forums! I agree with everything others have posted. Bad parents don't think about whether they are doing well or not.

Going back to work is a huge step! I haven't worked in almost a year, although I am teaching part-time and doing some freelance assignments. I dread the day I have to "report in" for set hours. I haven't even started and have the same fears about how I will be able to handle it -- when I can handle life now without a job.

General is a good place to post when you aren't sure where to post. There are Forums for many topics, such as Depression, Anxiety, Self-Injury and survivors of abuse. Feel free to listen in or jump right in to any of the threads. I am sure that you can find a supportive group of people here who understand what you are going through and will offer love and support.
