Hello Tamka,

You are a great mother. You feeling down and hard on yourself since you are not able to help your soon already deems you a decent human being and a caring person. Your son seems to be dealing with something that would require skills and stamina that you as family member can not handle. You would not expect chef to be able to write a complex computer code. Same thing goes here.

Love and compassion is all you can give. So do just that.

Your son did the right thing by seeking professional help and i would suggest that you do the same or at least get some support to help you with it.

Also, on the positive side, your son seeking help is clear that he has a will to be healthy.

You did the same thing by going here and looking for tools. Now you need to find the right ones. I hope you have successful journey in finding the right way. Just keep trying and you will for sure. You will not though if you keep telling yourself you are a bad mother. Do not let the inner you believe that.

Am afraid i can not offer much than these simple words.

Wishing you all the best.

I'm sorry to hear of your suffering and your son's. I'm not religious but I am sending good vibes to both of you. Getting admitted to hospital sounds extreme but it's a much better course of action than other things he could do. Maybe he will get some medical help which can turn things around for him. Can I ask if you both/either of you get any support, in addition to your faith? I would never underestimate the comfort you get from your faith, but sometimes we all need a little extra help, eg therapy and or medication. I wish you both well x

Hang in there and be proud of your son for seeking help !! This really shows how anxiey and depression is in the genes of families. That means you are not to blame for a inheridited tendency toward some disease. Would you be responsible for getting diabetes or a heart problem ? The brain is an organ, just like any other. Hope this helps take some of the pressure off you. YOU ARE NOT TO BLAME. Hugs and love

I don't know why but I feel like the lyrics to this song might give you some encouragement.

"I know you're feeling like you just can't win, but you're trying

It's hard to keep on keepin' on, when you're being pushed around

Don't even know which way is up, you just keep spinning down, 'round, down

Every storm runs, runs out of rain

Just like every dark night turns into day

Every heartache will fade away

Just like every storm runs, runs out of rain

So hold your head up and tell yourself that there's something more...

It's gonna run out of pain

It's gonna run out of sting

It's gonna leave you alone

It's gonna set you free

Set you free

Every storm runs, runs out of rain

Just like every dark night turns into day

Every heartache will fade away

Just like every storm runs, runs out of rain

It's gonna set you free,

It's gonna run out of pain,

It's gonna set you free"

I think that's a love song, I'm not sure but oh well, I feel like those words would help.

Heavenly Father.

All things are possible with you. You hear and act on the prayers of your faithful children. Hear my prayer and that of Tamka 39. Send an abundance of faith, hope and healing. In Jesus' name I ask Amen. I will keep you and your son in my morning prayers.

Im prayin for you and your son, everything will be ok think positive, and try to focus on whats in front of you now, not yesterday, not tomorrow. See if maybe you can find a hobby you can do together, maybe a gym? light cardio... saunas massage beds... planet fitness is pretty cheap.
