Need help with my anxiety

My sons Dad recently came bk in his life after no contact since birth. I behaved horribly and was messaging him all the time.....constantly.

The anxiety this caused me led to me placing my son in foster care, I see him regularly and have help from psych team, awaiting therapy etc and appt with psychiatrist.

Son's Dad has been a bit off with me today. He's on a bit of a downer due to his brother being in a relationship with his ex and wants to be left alone. His brother and I met up with the kids today and it went well.

I understand he's finding it hard and I know when he wants to be left alone he means it.

I am finding it really hard not to message him again.

Have to take my son back to his Foster placement today......they are staying at their caravan do its a round trip of 100 miles. Can make the journey no probs but anxiety huge and worried about coping over next 3 days with it as not seeing my son until
Wednesday.

Just gpnna need a bit of support next few days and to chat if that's ok?

Hi, I've suffered from depression in the past (mainly PND)

My son is nearly 6. It is mainly centred around his Dad coming bk into his life but because his Dad is stressed about his ex's relationship with his brother, he's been a bit snappy the last 2 days and I'm finding it really hard to handle.

He says he needs to be left alone and why don't people understand that. I did reply to that MSG saying I understood but font want to fall out with him. Seems like he's kind of withdrawn into himself.

Desperate to MSG again but I know it would be a very, very bad idea and he wouldn't be impressed at all!!
