Feel so desperately unhappy

Feels like nothing is ever going to get better. I'm utterly sick of my husband, to the point where I can't stand the sight of him (and I've told him that). My DS16 is so depressed he's lying in bed in the dark. DS14 is mooching around and I'm embarrassing him because I'm sitting in the corner of the dining room sobbing. I'm so fed up of it all. I want my kids to be little and hard work and bloody annoying again - but at least they had lots of energy and we went places and did things. All fucking stuck at home now. Even if we could, nobody wants to do a fucking thing. I'm sick of the walks. Sick of chores. Desperately lonely. No end in sight. Can't cope with living with a depressed person anymore. 'You're only as happy as your unhappiest child' is so true. Can't live like this. Honestly feel like I could end it all. Literally bored to death.

Hello OP, we are really sorry to hear you are feeling this way.
We hope you don't mind, but when these threads are flagged up to us we usually add a link to our Mental Health resources. You can also go to the Samaritans website or email them on [email protected]. 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 RL help and support as well.
We also like to remind everyone that, although we're awed daily by the astonishing support our members give each other through life's trickier twists and turns, we'd always caution anyone never to give more of themselves to another poster, emotionally or financially, than they can afford to spare.
We are going to move this thread to the Mental Health section shortly.
