I have a 4 year old and have recently got married to an amazing man...the trouble is, I don't feel like a matter anymore and that my son and husband would be better off without me, I feel I'm a burden on everyone and I make people unhappy, I'm not sure what to do

First you can think about how amazing your 4 year old is, and realise much of that is your doing. Raising a little one is hard work, but they reward you daily.

Why do you think you make people unhappy?

Please go to your GP and tell him how you are feeling. It sounds like you are depressed. I've been there, many times. Please take care of yourself, too.

You are so important to that little boy and your man!

I am so sorry you’re feeling this way but in no way are you alone.

Taking this next step will be hard, but please.. you deserve to look back on this with a new mindset. You need to speak to a doctor, and you won’t be just another number who doesn’t count. You’ll be respected because this is such a big thing.

Your bravery to admit this on here is something you need to look at. You can do this.

You really, really matter.
