It is a real land slide rn. I have to find the strength because I love my babies.she is 8 years old she was my premi baby if you have been following me.
My sweet child.: Today I have a IOP... - Anxiety and Depre...
My sweet child.
Yes hold your little girl and love her and let her know everything
is going to be okay. You sound like a great father and your wife a
great mother. Nothing can beat the foundation of a solid family life. xx
Oh bless her and you so much and I pray for strength and comfort and hope and I send you and your babies and wife love and hugs and you are all in my prayers bless you all so much prayers now I am about to pray for you all God bless you all.
I'm so sorry for both you and your daughter, and it must be so terribly frustrating to want to fix your babies when they hurt, but the sad thing ism when we just don't really know what's going on. I know I've had depression my whole life, and was just sad sometimes, and there really wasn't a reason to feel sad all the time. So in therapy, finding out more about the hormonal things, the chemical imbalance causing us to have depression helped me to understand...there doesn't have to be a reason to feel sad...you just do. Nobody can fix us, it's just learn to accept it, it doesn't define us, and know it's part of who we are physically. And to learn coping mechanisms to handle it the best we can, and most importantly, to let the people around us to know to understand that it has nothing to do with them, to not take our mood personally, and to just let us get through it and be empathetic, compassionate, and eventually hopefully have an up swing. Mine comes and goes, it's cyclical.
You are very correct. I just started my roller coaster in 2020 I believe when I first had an episode and asked for help. So I'm taking all steps to understand and get better. My children give me hope and faith in recovering. Are you doing okay yourself?
You are very kind to ask that, thank you..... I am okay.... but as you know, ...it's good days and bad days living with depression, and life can be a struggle for anyone. I've been at this healing and understanding thing for a few decades now, and it's been a bumpy ride, it still is at times... but I'm fortunate like you to have people in our lives that love us. So many don't.
You are a blessing. Love and hugs to you also. Please pray for our strength as I will for you. My family here and the one I created is all I have so I hold you all close to my heart.
Yes you are a great solid family foundation nothing absolutely can bear a solid family foundation that what God has in your lovely and beautiful little family unit life for you all take care of all of you that's exactly what I would do for my son.
Beat not bear
I am here for you and hope others you can talk to as well
