Feel like a bad Mother

[Tamka40]

My son is sick and I cant really help him because im dealing with anxiety and depression. And im lost myself

[Hidden]

What do you mean you can't help your son ?

[Tamka40 in reply to Hidden]

He's sick and my depression and anxiety stop me from being a fulltime mom he's 18 but I still want to be there

[Hidden in reply to Tamka40]

Don't see why that should stop you being a parent. Maybe being occupied with him will distract you from yourself.

[Tamka40 in reply to Hidden]

U right

[HopingCat]

Just give him some medication and have him cuddle with you on your bed

I know how that feels I have a 12 year old with chronic pancreatitis who is having on and off pain and possible surgery in the near future and I am still obsessed with how bad I feel. I was very strong the last two years of dealing with her issues but now I can't even muster up enough energy to go to work. I need to get better to take care of her! I just need to and this is why I am still going to a million doctors appointments and not giving up!
