I'm tired of it all

I'm tired of having to fight through my life. I've had depression and anxiety throughout my life and I can honestly say if I didn't have kids I'd just end it all.

I'm a terrible mother. I have no patience, I can hardly get through a day without bringing gloom upon the household. I'm ruining my marriage because I'm just horrible to be with.
I always said I'd never leave my kids but I just don't know how much longer i can keep that promise. I honestly feel my husband would be better off without me. He says we're at rock bottom and its all because I'm ruining it all.
I asked for help. I said im having terrible thoughts but no one hears me. Probably because its all been heard before.

Hi FallingStar,

We're really sorry to hear you're feeling this way.

Hope you don't mind, but when threads like this are flagged up to us we usually add a link to our Mental Health webguide, which lists lots of organisations which may be able to offer you some real life support.

You can also go to the Samaritans website, or email them on [email protected], or call them, free, any time, on 116 123. Support from other Mumsnetters is great and we really hope you will be able to take some comfort from your fellow posters, but as other MNers will tell you, it's really a good idea to seek as much help and support as you can in real life as well.

It's definitely worth taking a look at the Mind website - they have tips for everyday living as well as coping with the everyday challenges of parenting. There's also info on managing during a crisis plus information about coping with Self Harm with links to how to find treatment and support. Please do take a look.

Sorry you're going through such an incredibly tough time. Sending good wishes. Flowers
