I Need Someone to Talk to
Posted: 04-10-07 09:12am

Hello, i am 21yrs old, as of 4/22. i have 2 kids and i am married... Needless to say i am also depressed. i moved to another state with my husband, (over 17hrs driving), and i have no one here, His family hates me, and i dont know if i want to be with him anymore. We have only been married for little over 6 months. I have one child by him and another by another. The one that is not his is always getting mistreated by his family. I cant just go home cause of my family, Me and my family dont even have a relationship. I feel like i am the only one in this world. I feel like the world is comming down on my shoulders. i have no friends up here. I dont know anyone up here. I have no one to talk to. There is so much on my mind i feel like im going to explode. I cant talk to him. My daughters are 2-1/2 and 10 months, so i cant talk to them.I just dont know how to get out of this state of mind. I dont know what to do. i am going to go crazy if something dont change soon.

you need to seek medical attention. you have 2 children under the age of 1 (was your 2nd one premature??) you have made a huge life change. YOu need to get help for post partum depression and you need to talk to your husband about how u feel.

definately get some counseling to help you regain a strong sense of self. It sounds like you are just too overwhelmed. I was also a young mom so I do kind of understand. My husband's family didn't like me and my own family, I am estranged from. P.M. me if you would like to talk more!

Wow! I was in the same situation 3 years ago. My hubby moved me and my 2 small children (9mths and 3 at the time) 14 hours away from my family. It lasted 10 months.......the worst 10 months of my life. I felt all alone and missed my family terribly. I finally couldn't take it anymore and I left my husband. I stayed gone about 2-3 weeks and then after all the begging I came back. But........I searched the internet daily trying to find him a job and it was very soon I found one that transferred him back to NC. If we wouldn't have moved back I think I would have stayed gone. We lived with his family who treated me and my children awful. It was the worst experience of my life. That was 3 years ago and I have not spoken to any of them........neither has my husband.

Me and my husband and 2 children of 3 and 8 moved to Canada from England 18 months ago. It has been so difficult as we are in a new country and have no family. As well we didn't have any friends either, so we were alone. It is deffinitely difficult, hard and emotional, but hopefully over time you should get settled. As for his family, maybe you need to speak to your husband and tell him how you feel.

Have you thought about enrolling your children in some kind of kindergarten or a childrens play group. This will give you the opportunity to mix with other mothers and make friends along the way. Your kids will be able to make friends and most of all you will be able to get out of the house and start socialising again.

There are also a few chat web sites dedicated to depression. It is amazing how many people you will find going through the same situation as yourself.

One i know of is depression net. They are very supportive.
