in Mamas with depression, anxiety, and other mental health disorders

I feel so heavy

feel so heavy. Lost, lonely. I am always upset, angry, or sad and crying. I eat because my body needs to, but have no taste for anything. I don't feel for anything. The motion to keep going is harder and harder. I do not see the end point. I know my children needs me, but they need a better version of me. I'm in an inexistant relationship.. my husband prefers the company of his phone than us, wife and children. He wakes up, no good morning just go get his coffee and watch his phone. His first words are most of the time to some friends or family calling him. Am not the best at communication even if i know better, that good communication is important and key.. mother's day last week i felt not appreciated.. his dad and sister came over and the atmosphere is always kindda weird idk- but I just felt out of place. I would say am kindda emotionally unstable and even tho am trying to work on it and get help, am nowhere getting better. I stopped working due to a burn out one a half year ago, i have no money left on my own; thinking of trying to find a new job, but am always sad and depressed and crying.. I have social anxiety and honestly dont want to interact with people.. i have nothing to say and have a hard time with our society today.. I always just feel out of place. I find it so hard to just keep going.

Show your support

I’m sorry you’re going through this. So alone, exhausted, raw. I don’t have any advice on how to fix this, but I want you to know you’re not alone. I applaud you working on getting better. Keep at it, hun, and I promise things will slowly get better. Keep reaching out, even if it’s on the internet. People care. Hugs

I'm here to talk to and if you have belief God is always there for you , you are never alone ❤️

I feel this post to my core. I just didn't even have it in me to explain it. No words of advice, just here to say if I keep going, you gotta too :) someone else hears you.

I understand exactly how you feel. I have chronic depression and postpartum depression is leaving me feeling nothing at all. I’m doing just enough in life right now. My family expects me to take care of everyone else too so they’re not supportive. What’s been helping me is meditation and yoga. I focus on helping myself and trying to find time for me. Im constantly journaling and reading positive affirmations on repeat. I’ve been forcing myself to focus on pushing myself to do fun stuff and stay away from screens (here I am lol) I really had to stop letting my husband bother me. When I started working on my mental health it rubbed off on him and we’ve been doing better. I mean… nothings perfect but it’s helping me stay afloat. Maybe it can help you too idk…

I can relate to this! Feel free to message me!
