Son

I wish I was having a good day like yesterday. But I'm really feeling depressed again and all from a past that won't stay in the past. The only joy I'm getting is the love and happiness my son brings me. Being a single parent is not easy but when I'm having a bad day I look at him and know it's worth it but once his asleep I silently cry wishing for my anxiety to stop for the negative to go away.

Im new and this is my first reply. I know how you feel. Right now, my anxiety is through the roof and I cant speak. I cant even look at my fiance. I just want to cry. But we have to stay strong, because it is people like us that deserve happiness. We deserve to be happy. This fucking sickness cannot rule our lives. My biological father has his anxiety ruling his. I met him for the first time earlier this year and I love him. I forgive him for not being in my life, because I know how anxiety feels. I praise you for having to be a single parent on top of everything. You are doing a great job.

Yeah it helps knowing other people go through it too. It is a rough time, but things will get better. It is a beautiful time too. This is just a growing experience.
