Oh so right Psychwife!

Quote From: psychwife2

I am very concerned that you continue to react so strongly to things that are beyond your control. You have enough on your plate without adding your sister in law's issues to your own. I urge you to do something soon. You need to get some help with your anxiety and depression and they aren't going to get better by themselves. You seem to be reaching some sort of crisis point and the longer it goes without treatment, the harder it will be for you to find happiness. And please don't be mad at me for suggesting this...it's just that you are worrying me a bit. Your posts continue to show you spiraling downward and while coming to this board is great for support, I'm afraid we can't do a whole lot to fix things for you. But don't stay away from the board...please continue to keep in touch. This message wasn't intended to suggest that you quit posting. I just really want to encourage you to get a handle on this before your son comes home. The last thing you need is for your ex to start saying you aren't emotionally capable of having your son...and if he plays as unfairly in the custody game as you say he does, he will certainly use it against you.

Please, focus on YOU right now and keep in touch.
Sweets my daughter has twins she was not ready for them either but they are the greatest blessing to our family! She is a great mom and we can't imagine life without these two identical little cuties! You can help that's what family is about to support so we don't fall down on the job. Psychwife about you reacting is good advice. I got on my meds to keep me from letting everything upset me as well as the depression. It all ties in together with the anxiety of being high stressed as well as being sad. Please Sweets go back and see your doctor. I know you want to get this under control before your son gets back. But this board is a good place to scream and vent so this is to place to let it all out! What I do is when I just want to vent is say Just venting no need for response if you don't want advice on the venting! Hugs Sweets!

Thank you and no I am not going to get mad.  I am okay, had to walk outside and take a breather and let some of this anxiety go.  yes i do have to becareful with the ex.  Back when I was pregnant I used to post on another depression forum and the ex got into my e mail and found out about the forum and started reading my posts.  He then told me he was going to use that against me in court.  My lawyer told me that I had nothing to worry about, that it would not hold up.  Well needless to say he didn't try and use it.  Guess he thought twice about it.  I would never ever do anything to harm myself or my child or my family.  I would never leave that burden on anyone.  I am scared to go to the dr, I dont want to be labeled.  I work for a pediatric therapy clinic where we have so many children who get labeled and it is sad.  I dont want that for myself.
