Hi! My name is Haley and I have 3 kids, a daughter who will be 13 next month, and 2 sons, a 9 year old and 15 month old. I have battled mild depression off and on since I started having children...or maybe I did have it as a young child and going through my teen years into adulthood. ANyways, it's manageable and I actually don't rely on medicine...I have accepted that my personality tends to be more somber at times and I use exercise and just trying to look on the bright side to help. I have taken medicine in the past but I don't like the side effects. I am glad I have found a place to talk about my feelings :)
Welcome. This is a nice group to see how other people handle their depression. For me it's good to know that other people do feel the same as me. I think I have more social anxiety & mild depression. One of these days I'll go see a professional & really fess up to it & maybe get something better than my own self help. Hope you like it, it's probably my favorite group here on cm.
Welcome. I am new here too. My name is Brittany I have 2 kids. a 6 year old daughter and a 3/12 month old son. Nice to meet you
