Dealing with Anixity and Depression is no laughing matter for someone such as myself. I have been on and off with this for years and it comes and goes. Back when I was twenty I first had depression. Why you may ask well for me its been personal.
It started when I had a misscarrage at the age of 20. I then when my first son was 2 1/2 years after being in a horid relishionship with his father who was abusive towards me.
That was two years after my misscarrage. I left that relishionship and went into a womans shelter and took my son with me and well things for me went from being in a womans shelter to trying to live with other woman just like myself and raising my son on my own. That for me became more the time I got more into trying to deal with living with other woman; raising a child; a husband who was abusive and no family to really ask for adivse who to trust so i dealt with guilt and shame for leaving my sons father I moved to another town for not only me but my son. Thats was the second time I had depression. It took over two long years and dessions for the sake of my now grown adult children.
Then came the thoughts again and ten years later it hit me like a ton and had depression again and four years later I am now taking meds. To finally realize maybe I need to keep taking them and go talk to someone. And hopeful soon take some groups to help me deal with everything. Yes I am a survirer and I tell you the reaxer please seek the help and support of those who care about you. From me to you your not alone.
