My kids are making me crazy, I don't know how I am going to deal. I'm so stressed out right now that my dinner is making me nauseated. I just took a xanax so I"m sure I'll feel a little better in a few minutes but I've been taking too many a day imho. I can't do this, I just don't know how, I feel like I'm going to have a melt down

Talk to me... Tell me a little about yourself since i am new. What is dd, dh, ds etc? What are your likes? My darn tooth is hurting, i think i will prolly sit around tonight and crochet a baby blanket for sanity reasons,lol. Do you have any hobbies? I am bored and the ex is taking the kid out to eat with his parents. We all know i coudln't last long at that table so i am waiting for the local delivery boy to bring me some italian chow. Looking forward to hearing from you, and hoping you feel better soon.

I'm a 28yr old sahm of daughter 7 and son 5 whose husband is down in Mississippi for school for 6 weeks. I haven't even made it through week one without having a breakdown. My dx is Bipolar 1, GAD, PTSD and minor OCD.


I want my husband. I just can't do this, I'm not strong enough

You CAN do this. Look how strong you are, You have had two beautiful kids. Your a sahm which i swear is the toughest job ever! Your strong in the sense your talking about your feelings and that takes alot for a person to do. I read your profile, what would you like to do in college? What is ur kitties names? we have alot in common, my little furry kitty is keeping me company right now, shes like another kid! Do you have any movies and popcorn the kids could watch? Do you have messenger?

Danielle, maybe you should post a chat tonight, if you want a few of us to get together & keep you company. When things get bad here, I try to bribe my son! lol! sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. I tell him he can stay up later if he goes to bed & i'll put a movie on in his room, stuff like that. Just to get him settled down & quiet. He will usually fall asleep. Or I make a tent under the table or between 2 chairs, something new to keep him quiet. And of course, bathtime, he was in there for almost 3 hours yesterday. I felt so stressed. I just sat on the floor outside the door & read a book. That way I could watch him in the mirror & he couldn't see me, so he just played contently with his toys in there. Be creative. Maybe you should hook up with a deployed spouses group, or something of that sort. I know you are reluctant, but those woman are in the same position & are right there with you. I didn't want to make friends with the other wives, but in retrospect, I know alot of women who did benefit from their support! Hugs going your way! (and some prayers, too!)

I am so glad things are a little better with the kids wound down and going to bed. Finally you will get the rest ya need. I am in school right now for something medical , my mind keeps changing. My kitty is a long haired calico named sissie. Hope things are better, take it one day at a time and we know you can do it! Sorry to cut it so short, i have to go drug myself and go to bed while i am feeling nothing. :(
