Can I have a private post please.

I feel like I can’t breath all the time and am stressed out constantly. I have 3 gorgeous kiddies but I feel like I want to cry all the time. I know I’ve taken on to much in my own personal life and don’t feel like I’m coping very well. I’m having major moments of panic for no real reason (other than just knowing I’m not coping) I feel sad like I’m completely alone even tho my partner is really supportive. I keep having horrible thoughts of not being here anymore (I would never do anything like that because I love my kids to much!) but I’m scared to go and see a doctor incase they take the kids off of me because of these thoughts. I’m drowning in a sea of my own mind and it’s driving me crazy I just don’t feel like I’m me anymore.

Has anyone else gone through anything like this or have any idea what I can do to make myself better? I don’t have many friends it’s gotten that bad I’m struggling to find the motivation to leave the house because I don’t want to see people. I’ve been dropping the kids off late so I don’t have to speak to anyone as everyone knows me as the happy outgoing person šŸ˜ž many thanks.

  • I felt like this a couple of years ago and can honestly say going to the Dr was the best thing I did. Talking to someone, getting it all off my chest and not being made to feel like I was crazy was the best thing. I didn’t have any ss involvement or anything like that the Dr was very supportive. He advised me to also speak to my partner and close friends and boy I’m glad i did the support I get wad amazing and now I’m doing better than ever. Please go speak to someone but also make time for you. Meet a friend for coffee or have an hour in the bath. It all helps. Your an amazing mommy just remember that x

  • I felt exactly like this last year In fact I could have written this post word for word myself. I had felt like it for a while and it was around this time last year I felt I needed to do something as I couldn’t carry on and my kids deserved a better me, so I went and spoke to a doctor. He put me on some anti depressants and they have made such a huge difference. I know medication isn’t for everyone but the doc will talk to you and see what you both feel will work for you. I was so scared to go to the doctor like you as It took a lot to get out of the house but it was the best thing I did.
    1 year on I still have those moments where everything gets a bit much like stress and coping with kids housework etc but that’s just normal. But all the panic out of nowhere, the terrifying thoughts, the not sleeping, the feeling of drowning have all gone. I’m happier for it. So please as scared as you are make that first step and see your doctor. They will not take your children from you they will help you to become you again. Xxx

  • U r not alone or weird or odd…the best thing 2 do is chat 2 gp they won’t judge u I promise!!the waiting list for counselling can sumtimes b very long but just letting ur gp know how u feel will make u feel so much better!!!they can put u on different types of meds n it can take a while 2 find the right 1s that work for u but they’ll also put u on the waiting list for counselling and should b able 2 advise u about local meditation groups and things similar which should help as well x

  • They won’t take you’re kids off you hun, they will probably get you some counselling to help deal with you’re feelings & maybe they will give you some tablets to help with the panic etc. But from what you’ve said they have no reason to take you’re kids! I’d go to the doctors and say how you’re feeling and you would like some help. You’re definitely not the only one and you won’t be the last but it’s important you get help xxx

  • Hey hun u really need to see ure gp. Seeing a gp will not effect your children. It sounds like ure having anxiety attacks and suffering from depression. Try talking more to ure partner and maybe take him to the gp with u. Plz dont keep suffering as the longer u leave it the worse it will become. you may need medication for a short while just to bring u back to a state that u feel u can cope with everything xx
