While depression has to be battled with, it is understandable that you will feel this way while going through so much. I'm glad to hear that you find moral support in your son. Kids may be trying at times, but the kind of link that a parent has with their child is incredible.
I've been fighting depression, anxiety and BPD for most of my life. Ten years ago I thought that there will never be anyone in this world for me, because nobody will be willing to put up with all the baggage of violent outbursts and fears and my inability to function in the socium. I'm married for 6 years now, and I'm still disbelieving that someone so supportive has stuck up with me. And although I'm only reading messages, it seems to me that you are a great person, and you shouldn't doubt that you deserve to be loved and cherished.
I wish you all the best that is possible  |
Hi Quanta,
Thank-you, what a lovely message. I'm really pleased to hear that you have someone so understanding in your life. He clearly loves you enough to accept all of you and that is really inspiring. :-)
I think my first hurdle would be explaining what I have and even getting anyone to understand it. I didn't even know exactly what neuropathy was before I became unwell with bizarre symptoms. Got to laugh about it though sometimes! I find it easier to do that when I've treated myself to a tramadol ;-)
Hope you are managing to keep things on an even keel. I know what you mean when you talk about fears. That is the key word to explain how I feel most days with the depression this has brought on. It's a horrible, anxious, shaky fear about everything. Tramadol does really help with that though. Thanks again for your kind words
