How can you tell?
I’m so depressed I must be an awful person to be around. I do all the practical things for my dc but I hate almost every aspect of my life so there’s no joy in any of it.
I can’t get help because there’s nothing in the nhs and when I tried to see a counsellor privately I kept having panic attacks just thinking about it. Only ever leave the house to go to work or to taxi the dc.
It’s a living hell. I’m too frightened to live but too frightened to die too.
