Marital Support

You dont need a man to feel love.You need to learn to love yourself and your children.You have themm they love you what more can you ask for.You need to turn your attention to your children not your husband,back off show him you dont care and change for the good,if you do this,it may wake your husband up and let him see what he is loosing.No man is worth that pain,i know been there done that but i put my children ahead of any man.Get you a job let him watch the kids while you work if he doesnt work,let him see what you go though everyday,Love yourself and you kids grow up get over him and dont worry about another man till you get your self straighten out.M.

The other women are right do not let a man control you. I know how hard that can be. Marriage is the hardest job besides being a mother of coarse you will ever have. I have been through a hilly marriage now for 7 years. I have experienced a lot of pain myself. The pain will end and you will move on. Nothing is worth taking your life for. NOTHING. Especially since you have children. You need to be a role model for them. I grew up around parents that attempted suicide several times. I also grew up without a mother she passed in a car accident when I was 7. I always though that that was normal. Do not let your children learn that behavior. I am new to Atlanta and by new I have been here for 8 months. I have also had a hard time finding friends because I do not work right now. I know how hard it is not having people you can trust to talk to. Feel free to email me anytime to vent. Venting is healthy. I will not judge you. I have no room to, since everyone has their own set of problems to deal with. If you need help please email me. Don't let yourself hit rock bottom before you find help. There are plenty of people out there who can help you, just let them.

I completely understand your need for emotional support, however, from the tone of your blog, you also need professional support. You admitted that you're depressed and from my own personal experience, this isn't something that you can "just get through". There is a reason why you're depressed and it takes more than a shoulder to cry on to work your way through your issues. Friends will listen to you and give you advice, a therapist will help you work through what you need to work through.

I have been there please do not give up you are going thru a very stressfull time right now. How long have you been living in Atlanta since you said you do not have friends here?Where are you from? I am here if you need to talk to someone that has been there and survive
