I don't know you

Quote From: muchdenial

Thanks MJ and neosmom23 for taking the time and effort to reply to my message.  I feel so invisible and worthless right now that I was pleasantly surprised that someone responded.  Thank you so much.  I will get the book Courage to Heal and start healing already.  It's about time.   

  

Today I have been super depressed just thinking about this over and over.  I feel like I can't function and be a mom.  I feel paralyzed.  Like I am just surviving but not living.  I'm taking 150mg of Zoloft and even that is not helping.  My therapist and I both suspect that I have an underactive thyroid because of all my symptoms but I know it's a lot more complex than that.  I just hope I start feeling better soon because feeling like this just makes my self-esteem plummett even more. 

I don't know who you are and I didn't get a chance to read your story but I did see the above response.  The book Courage to Heal is an excellent book.  My daughter was molested by a family member who I wanted to kill and sometimes feel like killing but Courage to Heal has helped me as a mother to better understand what my daughter is going through.  It cannot take away the pain and hate that I have for this person only GOD can do this but it helps me to understand.  Some hope is better than none.

 

I hope that you do get the book and I hope that it helps you as it does for me.

 

Take care.
