Needing help through this

[cbonne846]

I'm in a place where all I see is drama in my life and I can't get past this. I have a therapist who is helpful but as we all know I need to work on things on my own, there's no one to hold my hand.

Ok, my mom lives with me and she has fallen twice in 2 days. I need to consider long term care in a facility but I'm not sure if i can live with the guilt of placing her. My siblings are not available to discuss things with so it leaves me to decide for her future.

I have various physical limitations, the latest is hand surgery where I'm not able to use the hand yet. This makes things worse in caring for mom.

My daughter was placed in foster care a few months ago as she was refusing to live with me and made serious allegations about her dad. I have tried to find help for her for the last 2 1/2 years but no one that can really help her.

I suffer from severe depression and I'm taking my medications as prescribed. It is easy for anyone to try to make me feel better by saying I'm doing the best but it's the guilt I feel. I can't live with guilt and regrets! It will eat me away...

Anyone out there feeling the same?

cbonne846m sorry for the difficult season you are going thru. have you tried to get a therapist for your daughter, discuss things with the school counselor and teachers and principal. 2ndly, try looking into hospice for your mother. possibly a caregiver can come to your home. her insurance can pay for it. hope this helps you. hugs of encouragement.
