well, my parents left today for 2 more months of vacation (me,dh and ds live with them) and i miss them sooo much already (they just left 1 hour ago)...and ya know its not cause i love them soo much (which i do), but instead its because i am worried that being alone all day w/ds will cause me to become more anxious and depressed becuase i am lonely.

There's nothing wrong with living with your parents, Heather.

I moved out of home when I was 17. Don't for a minute think that there haven't been stressful times that I wished I could move back, Heather. My parents aren't of a generous nature & have always told me to work things out for myself. I know that scared & lonely feeling. You have some blessings that not everyone gets. Look @ the positive side. You've got a chance to get your finances in order & get back on your feet.

Don't feel bad Heather. We lived with my parents for 3 years and it was wonderful. Now, my dad lives with us! Don't be so hard on yourself. Count it as a blessing instead. You get to be close to your parents!

thank you ladies for the support...today will be the real practice oppertunity as dh is working form 7am to 10 pm....so i'm alone all day....i've got all these "things" that i've been saving up to do so that i can try and keep busy today like 4 loads of laundry, i'm going to try and go to the gym (they have a day care there), we went to swim lessons this morning....


still hanging in there....today is starting out okay, but when i first woke up i was pretty anxious about taking ds to swim lessons thinking, "what if i have a panci attack there and have to leave?" but i got throught it and that was pleasent.

I hope so too Heather. I'm right there with you. Just trying to get through things I have to do instead of enjoying them. Have you considered taking another ad? I'm starting to think about Effexor. Can you take anything else while you are pregnant? I wish you were back to your old self!
