I'm in such a whirlwind right now, I don't know where to start. A child that I babysit for and had a hand in raising, took his own life. He dealt with depression and I think he was bipolar also. He was the most loving caring kind person you would ever meet. Also this week my nephew who is very close to my son Isaiah is leaving for college 5 hours away. My son has been crying and it is so hard for me to see that. I know it's not forever but it's hard.

We also are very proud of Isaiah as he is going to start at a junior college here in our town. He didn't start school right after high school as he wasn't ready. He is autistic and it just takes a little more time for him. He will only be taking one or two classes just to see if we can handle it.

I am starting to feel so depressed and down, I know some of its normal and I'm hoping that in a few days some of it will be gone.

Sorry for your loss.

When someone you're close to moves out, it can be sad as well. Hope Isaiah adjusts to college. He will have a lot of resources and accommodations for his autism.
