[quote=Anonymous]Sending you a virtual hug - this sounds like a huge burden to carry. A relative recently went through a really hard time, and I noticed that she would not actively ask for help or let people help. You don't mention a partner, but please try to lean on anyone in your life who could help with literally anything. It doesn't have to be a best friend or family member. I have asked moms I've met once to please take my kid for an evening. I have called friends whom I hadn't spoken with for years and never really revealed my deep secrets to, and cried to them and told them everything. You will be surprised how much people will help. With your kids, I think it's really important to process it with them, and tell them that mommy is having a hard time, but we love each other and we will get through this and it'll be okay. Don't avoid talking about it in an attempt to pretend everything's normal and leave them alone with their fears. [/quote]
