What do you do when you’re having a crisis and your one and only support rather play video games with his friends than be there for you

Hi Gasulina, actually, there is nothing you can do but change the way you react to the video gaming. The more we get upset over something we cannot control, the

closer we come to our anxiety growing. Does it help? No....

So then it's time to find another way of handling your stress. Coming to the forum

is one way. Another way is finding a quiet place to calm your mind. If you are not

in danger, then hopefully, you will handle this on your own.

If there is anything we can do in listening to you, know that we are here. xx

It’s hard, the only reason why I keep fighting is because of my kids, and now I’m harming everybody around me that I don’t believe I’m the best for my kids anymore

Gasulina, I understand how hard it is for you. This is when professional help is

necessary for your sake and the sake of your children. Your mental health issues

are trying to make you believe that you are not the best for your children anymore.

It's not true. A child always needs the love of their mother. They adapt more than

we think they do. They don't judge if you are the best or not. A child's love is

unconditional. Their "mommy" is the most important person in their life.

With help Gasulina, you will get through this. xx

Don't rely on that person anymore. They can't be what you need them to be in "those moments". You need to look for support in other friends, family, or you may need to speak to a counselor. Your kids need you. Don't ever doubt that. Do whatever you need to do to get the help you need. You don't have to figure this out by yourself. We are here for you as well and know that you can get through this.

I'm sorry you feel that way. I can relate sort of. I have absolutely nobody. No friends no family. I think you can see the positive that you have at least someone you can try to communicate with. What do you have to loose? I hope it works out for you.

Not what you're looking for?
