Hello, I am new in the forum. I am a 38 year old single mom and I've been dealing with depression, anxiety and  my whole life. I was recently dumped by the father of my youngest, and even though I had been calm for four years, depression hit me again really bad. These past few days I have been very anxious and I can't stop crying. My desire to is getting worse every minute. I need help. I haven't eaten in 3 days now. I just cry and cry.

Hi Bluemar,

First of all, welcome to the depression forum. I am glad to see you reaching out.

Secondly, I think you need to contact your local mental health agency and talk to somebody. It sounds like you are very depressed and it might get worse. Talk to somebody. Your doctor, a minister, a counselor... Somebody professional.

I am sorry but we aren't allowed to discuss self harm on the forum. But we are still here to support you. I hope that you feel better soon. Try to relax, get on the phone and get ahold of somebody that you can talk to.

Take care my freind.

Hugs, Karen

Hi Blumar,  I'm 35 yrs old am mum to a daughter almost 14 who lives with her dad. She won't have nothing to do with me now since I left the family home after years of unhappiness, been hit and made to choose him over my dying dad. I'm disabled as I have Lumbar Spondylosis which is affecting my leg left and neck and shoulders, can't walk very far without been in severe pain, on list to have branch block injections as I have facet joint dysfunction. I have suffered from depression since I had my daughter its now worse due to pain, I'm unable to work as I'm so drowsy from medication Pregabalin, Duloxitine, co-codamol came off morphine 3 months ago. I cannot claim any benefits, been refused but am appealing for DLA. I'm in a new relationship with lovely man who loves me we're engaged, but I'm worried that my depression is causing us major problems as he has distanced himself off me hardly any cuddles or kisses we row all time as I snap at him and nag him. I feel so alone as my remaining family brother n fam cousins aunt lives 65 miles away, most have turned there back on me since i left my husband (they close to him also) I dont get out to meet new people so get frustrated and all I do is cry....the only thing that keeps me going is the love I have for my fiance`and hoping oneday my girl will need her mum.  So you ever need to talk to me I'm here I can understand the not eating I'm same infact I'm sick if I eat alot I may keep bit toast down.
