I can’t shake the idea that everything would be better if I were gone. I’ve contacted the GP, on the waiting list for counselling, don’t want drugs because I am breastfeeding my second child. My husband had a nervous breakdown and abused alcohol during my second pregnancy. My marriages feels like it’s been hanging by a thread for a year. He is in paid for therapy but we can’t both afford it. My relationship with my mother and father is very strained. My husband and parents are completely estranged. I just feel like the common denominator is me. I love my two DD so much but I just feel like whatever I do I will eventually fuck them up. I fought so hard to fix my relationships with my parents, I’ve been fighting so hard for my marriage but it’s just endless. My husband and I agreed guardians for my daughters in the event of any tragedy but I just feel like I should get my will written, get their guardian ships set up before I can damage them too. Part of my brain is screaming that I am wrong but th evidence just feels a overwhelming. They are such sweet girls, I love them, I love feeding them and caring for them, playing with them but everyone I love I now have terrible relationship with. I cannot bear that to happen to them and it must be me. Please help. I am not about to do anything. Just find the arguments for my absence overwhelming

everything wont be better if you are gone. it will be opposite.
nobody can be like their own mother for your dc. that love and caring is special.

please dont blame yourself with broken relationships around you. you do your best if it doesnt work then it doesnt work.

you can build other friendships.

are you working?

correct ads may help you.

keep busy and keep your focus on your dc. Flowers
