I have 2 dc and a dh, work full time as a HP. I seem to be always looking after everyone.
I did not sleep for 5 years after my ds was born and can now see I was clearly depressed but would not admit it.
The last couple of years have been tough and 7 months ago I had a breavement of someone v close - actually my closest family member and the only one who I could 100% rely on .
I have a terrible relationship with my parents and have realised my mum is toxic and has given me huge ishoos that I am trying to work through.
I am a ' I am ok ' type and dont talk about my feelings at all easily.
Is it possible to be depressend and hide it ?
I just cant start to admit my real feelings and am getting to the point where I am honestly not sure if I can carry on and am fantasising about breaking my foot or something so I can just stop and get off the treadmill of my life.
Would my GP take me seriously ? I cant see myself going to the GP but I feel my options are running out as something has to give.
