I am so scared as I have many things that are happening at once, in the next 30 days: my work has announced lay offs, I will have a baby due (joyful but scary), I have a friend who has said she is going to end it on her birthday and a brother who just left of Afghanistan. I am not sure way all this is happening now, I wake up at 4:30am every morning to a panic attack.
I am trying learn that I am not in charge or responsible and use the serenity prayer. God grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change; courage to change the things I can; and wisdom to know the difference. .  GOD PLEASE KEEP ME AFLOAT ANOTHER DAY, HELP ME MAKE MY WAY. |

hang in there, scout.
u're right, lots going on that you have no control over. just stay in today and not project the outcomes. try to focus on the positives...baby soon!!!as for your brother, i will definitely keep him in my prayers.  i'm an army mom so can relate to that concern.

I am making it... My brother is with the Army leadership and he has returned from the Mideast unharmed. Today friends came over to be with me, I felt blessed.
I am humbled to tears by your caring. Thank you

Things are starting to work out.
I am making it, staying busy, staying positive & hopeful. How? By helping people I ran a Depression and Bipolar support group in Chicago, and it made me feel so in powered to help someone else.

Hello friends,
My friend did not kill herself on her 40th birthday as she said she would, thank god. And is now getting professional help. My wife delivered a little girl on 10-11-10 we named her evelyn, she is healthy and my wife is recouperating after 3 surguries. I guess out of the three events all three turned out okay. Thank u all for ur support. |

Depression is not a weakness ...... it is a sign that you have been strong for too long.
