Hi there Im new to this so hopefully Im doing this right. First off a little background and and why Im here. Im 30 and married almost 5 years, together 10. We have 2 daughters 2 and 7. I never thought Id be a stay at home mom living in Texas of all places (from Seattle) Its been a struggle to say the least starting in a new place with none of my family and friends around living in the country raising 2 kids. I feel alone. I feel unappreciated. I have social anxiety. My husband makes the money and I feel like he holds it over my head a lot. Its my job to do all the house chores, everything for the kids, bills etc. Hes easily angered so I feel I walk on egg shells when he is home. We have had a rough start to the year and I feel myself just mentally checking out and not wanting to try and fix things anymore.

Hi @HuskyLuv19 youre doing a great job being a Mom and being a wife. You are doing the most great and noble job a mother could asked for, look at your two lovely kids who adore you and appreciate you no matter what. Marriage is a challenge and a constant adjustment but dont lose hope, life is beautiful. Hope you can at least make time for yourself and theres friends here who could help you.

Hi! I live with GAD and MDD-TRD and I'm really glad I found a place where I can share my experiences and learn from others' too. I know a lot of people are reluctant to ask for help with mental illness due to the stigma so I think it's fantastic that there are resources that people can access anonymously. Looking forward to having some great chats!

Hello! :S i know it's march now... but i wanted to say hi to all the penguins! laugh

I found this place and it has helped me a lot. There are people who really like to listen to us and that feels great.

I firmly believe that compassion and empathy are fundamental values ​​for each one of us. I know there are bad days, but these are not so bad, if there is someone by your side willing to listen to you. :)
