Isn't it great when you watch your child do something for the first time? Like it's a little miracle before your eyes. No matter what else is going on you instantly feel better. Cherish your son Jewel, these are the things you will remember most about this time. If you love your son you are being a good mom. There are no perfect moms, just moms who love their children and try to do their best for them. You are a good mom.
If you re-read the conversations we all had you can follow the good and the less so and see a progression.
I know that you must be a proud mom this morning. When out babies hit their mile-stones with little encouagement we know they are healthy, happy, and stimulated little tikes.
well today something really cool happened...my son sat up on his own for the first time!! and in the middle of the crap in my life i had a tiny ray of sunshine and i suddenly thought maybe i wasnt doing such a bad job of a mum with him as i might have led myself to believe. i dont kno if this is the right section to write this in but anyway. thank you all for your kind words and support it feels kinda wierd hearing from ppl that understand me and kinda nice too...
does it not help to let go fo all the nasties with the gang of us who really know ... ???
*who really know how much you really needed your break !!!
*who understand how much it hurts when it seems like there is never one thing in the whole-wide-world that will co-operate with out wishes!!!
That is what this is the depression center and we all really know just how bad you day was. That is why we are here. We come when we are having our rotten days and we come on the better days. and it is always a learning experience
I hope you will find a moment soon to tell us about the sunshine in your day. Maybe a client was happy with your service? or your baby had a smile for you? It is important that you find something nice and positive ...

hi jewel,
sorry so late in welcoming you here, too. please stick around - it helps. i always though emo was short for emotional. your friend was no friend, just a bully. try to relax, care for your baby and know that you are not alone. antidepressants help - give it a fair shot, you could soon notice an increase in your ability to cope. you don't ever have to apologize here. we get you!
