Hello Everyone,
I'm new to this board so I thought I'd introduce myself. I'm a married mother of six who works full time as a nurse. I've struggled with depression and PST for years now. I've just recently been able to admit to myself that I need help and the support of others, so I can use all the prayers/good wishes you guys have right now. I hope to get to know everyone here and maybe trade a few "war stories". Sometimes I feel like I'm the only person in the world going through this, although the nurse in me knows that just isn't true.... Thanks for all comments/input. It's much appreciated.

6 kids and you work full time?
*hugs
Welcome (what's your name, so we know what to call you?)!
I too am new here, I have posted a little. Growing up as one of six kids I totally respect that you are also able to be a full time nurse. I only have 2 girls of my own, and I go to school and my life is hectic! I too am in the early stages of getting help and hopefully an actual diagnosis, something that should have been done years ago. All of my experiences here have been wonderful, I found the Wednesday night chat to be inspiring! Good luck to you and best wishes!

Welcome, Jenny
My husband and I are thinking of adopting and I am worried I will not have the energy to handle one kid, let alone six!!! God bless you, not many people could do what you do.
I suspect your job also makes you stressed. You are in a very hard profession!
I hope you continue to post while I watch you cope with life with admiration and amazement.
I was wondering if you have any alone time? Could you have your husband watch the kids for a little while each day and meditate or journal or read? I bet that would help.
Hugs.
