    Sounds like you have a lot of issues that you need help with. Have you seen a therapist or considered it? Maybe try talking to your family doctor for a referral? You don't sound very happy at all. Sometimes just talking about your feelings can make you feel better and improve your outlook.

    The more you love yourself, the more of yourself you can give to others. Print what you just wrote and give it to a therapist. Honestly, you will get better. You don't have to do it alone. Help is out there. You've already done the hard part. Just show up and let the therapist read what you just wrote. You can do it. :flowerforyou:

    What a very personal thing to share with all of us. I hope you have a therapist and you can share this with them. Sending hugs.

    Sending love your way. Reaching out is a good start. Perhaps your husband could deal with this or maybe talk to someone that you can learn to trust. :flowerforyou:

    If there is anything I have learned through my own journey of severe depression and mental issues is that you need to TAKE CARE OF YOURSELF FIRST! You are no good to anyone else if you are broken inside. Believe it or not I understand where you are coming from. I have felt that way for a great part of my life. There are always dark demons waiting to take over whenever I let my guard down. You need to talk to someone, and you need to let your husband in. Mine has been my biggest supporter and will take the extra burdens from me when it is too much for me.

    Add me if you wish, I can be an ear if you need someone to talk too...

    It was a good post. An honest post. But I did disagree with the last paragraph. Life should not be all about others. Certainly caring about others more than ourself is good at times, but don't forget to care about yourself too. We all have baggage and one of the hardest lessons in life is learning to leave the things that can't be changed alone and focus on what can be changed and what doesn't need changed.

    It's okay not to be perfect. I don't care what their BF% is or what their abs look like, no one is perfect.
