I have felt low for a long time on and off. I was with my ex husband and towards the end of us I lost weight (which is not a bad thing!), I was very very tired, went to A&E several times thinking I was having a heart attack, heartburn everyday, pins and needles in my hands when I woke up could not feel anything. Then outbursts of crying. It was hard to hold down the job I had. Im now feeling the same. I moved away from my home and family 2 years ago to be with my partner. It was hard I had DS and had post natal depression I was on my own. I then got a job 1 year later which was fine and my house rented as well. Then this year the child working tax credit went down and my mortgage for my house went up. I was left thinking oh fucking hell. went to see the bank they lent me some money. 15K this would cover the shortfall and extra chilcare costs. (As we would be better off next year) since then my long term tennant is leaving this Saturday I have no tennants although its being advertised through 2 agencies. I have a new job closer( saving 100quid per month) to home been there for 2 weeks. Really miss my friends from my old job. And my dad is mentally ill back where my house is. He is lonley and I feel really bad. my mum lives in that area too as do all my family. If I could get a job and move back I would then split the family up. If I stay here well I dont know. I filed for a DMP that going through. I keep getting panic attacks and horrible thoughts of if I die everyone will be sorted then. The house will be paid off my DS 1 can live with his dad and step mum and little sister. But DS 2 would be left with my partner and his family have been nothing but horrible to him since we moved closer to them (they paid the deposit on his house where we all live). Im lost totally fucked off with everything and want to be sedated for a few weeks. I worry about my kids, new job, dad, my house, money everything is too much. I feel Im on the way to a nervous breakdown. I shake and get upset easily sometimes scared feel exhausted. I have been docs as it gets worse near my period hes given ny some hormone to take. I feel drained. sorry that went on forever. I ramble when im nervous as well....

Not sure that I totally understood all of that.
I dont know what DMP is.
Have you now definitely got the new job?
What is your and your sons' relationship like with your dp?

I know sorry. my mind feels like its going to explode. I cant cope. A DMP is debt management plan. My DP gets on fine with my older son ( the son who is not biologicaly his). As for the rest its a mess. I feel very low and think that if I was not here the kids would be better off and the debts would be paid off. No one would need worry then. My boys would be ok then too they would have money to do what they needed too. But then I want to see them grow up and see what they do. I feel very very low just before my period. I have been to the docs he gave me some pills to level out the hormones. Think I need to go back! Thanks for the reply :)

I realised that my thoughts go a bit haywire before a period. So I resolved to ignore them. And not make decisions on things or even have opinions on things until the period had started.
