[quote=Anonymous]Do you have a therapist? The Holidays are always a time when people with weak family support tend to get depressed. It's easy to understand why - all major Holidays emphasize the value of family (and with it, loyalty and support).

I'm just going to say that even though your husband and kids may take you for granted right now, I hope they express moments of gratitude and affection, or help when you most need it. My husband can be a total jerk when I'm healthy. But when I'm sick, he takes good care of me. My teens are obviously self-centered because they're teens; one has severe ADHD and high-functioning autism, the other has a chronic auto-immune disease. Yet they do help me when I ask, and they are affectionate when they remember to be.

It was never going to be perfect, OP. Don't believe the Hallmark movies or the Insta/FB!

Take care of yourself, physically and mentally. Instead of thinking "I'm such a good person that I place others needs before my own"; think "I need to put on my oxygen mask before I can help others with theirs".
