[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think the posts suggesting therapy are very valid. There is also no shame in getting meds to help cope. Nobody should feel so much rage that they think about harming another. I say this as someone who posted her about having sandwich generation rage and I got myself help.

Therapy does not mean you are broken or mentally ill, though if you are either or both therapy is good for that too. It is part of managing the stress and finding ways to cope with anger in a healthy way.

I say this all as someone who has an elderly parent who has regular rage fits at me and who thinks mental health care is only for crazy people. [/quote]

Telling moms who have the odds stacked against them that they need therapy is beginning to sound a lot like telling working women that they just need to “Lean In” because, you know, they just aren’t going at it the right way or trying hard enough. [/quote]

NP. I agree with the PP. therapy helps me in giving me a place to vent and someone to validate my stress and concerns. I started going after I realized I couldn’t use my H/mom/BFF this way without them eventually wanting to dump me.

I am not crazy or broken. I just need a venting session once a month.[/quote]
