New here ... facing depression

Hi, I’m new here tho I’ve joined a while ago and just recently discovered I am depressed and I’ve suffered anxiety and panic attacks in my past.

i have two adult children at home from first marriage that don’t work. Always full of excuses.
my husband of 8 yrs and I have separated, we have been trying to fix our marriage but it’s a struggle with my two lazy ones and his kids from first marriage who don’t like me for entering their dads lives. They are adults as well.

im so depressed, I don’t want to do nothing. And I don’t want to get help in fear everyone thinks I’m a worthless mother, I have children with my recent husband. I have been put down by his family that it’s actually crushed me but I try to stay above the water.

Hi Chica72 i really for you as you dound like you are struggling so much.I to suffer from depression,anxiety and panic attacks as well and know how hard it is for you.I know how scarey it is to let other peoole know about how much you are struggling.Dont be afraid to get help because of this.Their is no shame in seeing your doctor and talking to them what you are going through.They can help you and it is confidential what you tell them.This is great place to get support and people on here are non judgemental and caring.

Take care,

Mark.
