I heard about these forums on the radio. I battled the stigma of mental illness for years. I never wanted to admit anything because I was fearful about having a child and my chart highlighting depression. My youngest are now 5 yo. My husband has left me. I hate admitting any kind of shortcoming but I finally recognise I need some sort of support or I will fail my children
Your a mother you will never fail your children if you love them you will find a way to be there for them even with depression. I often feel like I'm failing my 2 year old but then he comes upto me and says mummy's sick today but tomorrow she will be better. And then I relise this moment too shall pass and tomorrow is a different day.
