Well, I have been feeling like I don't matter at all. I have three kids: 6,4, 17 months, whom I dearly love and are my reason for living. But after being home with them all this time I feel like I am not allowed to take care of ME! I got $130 for my birthday almost a month ago and I get no chance to go out and spend it. My husband is never home and I live out in the middle of nowhere with no friends and no support. I can't go shopping with a 4 yr old and 17 month, how would I get to actually try anything on or really look. I get no time to myself and no one takes care of me,even when I am sick. I feel like I wipe butts and noses all day and get things for everyone under the sun. I go to bed tired and wake up tired. Oh, and my marriage is really NOT great!! I know I am depressed, I don't enjoy anything anymore and would stay in bed all day if I could, which I can't!!

Does anybody understand??????????????
