Hello

[Worldlymama]

I’m new here. Happy to have found this group. I have had several bouts of depression in my life. They have always been situational but I know that even if they are situational I need to address them and stay cognizant of my mental state. I am currently dealing with a couple law suits, health issues with my dad, a narcissistic mother, and a hubby who injured himself and requires my care. I also take care of 3 kids under 9. I would love to hear how you guys are dealing with depression and anxiety. I have been on 20 mg of Prozac daily and psychotherapy every other week. Can you all share some tips on how you cope?

Hey worldly mama , I’m struggling too , I thought my depression had gone but it’s come back again lately. You have a lot happening in your life , that sounds like a LOT of pressure on you , a lot going on for you !!! I hope this makes you feel better, that’s my intention , not to undermine your situation.... I nearly lost my 2 grown boys to suicide recently, what I would do to turn back time and have them little again. Something positive for you , yours are young , little people, little problems... well I hope so . 💕

Sorry to hear, you have any regrets or complains to anyone please share?

[Worldlymama in reply to Mumma_h]

Hugs to you! I am happy to see the word “almost” so I assume they are ok now? How are you coping? Yes I am by no means young, just had my little ones late but they do bring me smiles even in dark days.

Hi, you sound very busy, but you need to make time for you’. Do your favorite thing, take a quick walk, a nice bath with bubbles or read a good book. Whatever relaxes you’

I am so glad you reached out, we need the support and encouragement of others, particularly when we are struggling. It sounds like you have had a difficult year and that you have experienced many trials and losses. I know what it is like to feel stuck in your situation and feelings, wondering when it is going to turn around. Take it one day at a time, no more than that. Here is a great resource that may be of help to you: bit.ly/3c0D4wS

Praying that you find strength, hope and love during this season. Blessings
