Hello Nicole
Goodness gracious, you are in a mess at the minute. Are you in touch with some sort of counsellor who can assist you ? Your GP can send you for 5 free sessions under the special 'mental health' program. Just ask if you have not already done so. I am thinking that your depression has got on top of you. Maybe your medication needs altering ?
Like you, I thought the BC nurses were here for a particular thing but really they are only there to provide you with information on where to get other help. Your GP could guide you in the right direction or perhaps contact Beyond Blue for a chat with a trained person who understands ?
Yes, BC is crap but you cannot let it defeat you ! There are others in far worse situations (you probably don't want to hear that) and they fight to rise above it.
Have you thought that perhaps your husband, children and friends are a little 'over it' as they simply don't know how to support you for such a long time ? Perhaps you let off a bit too much steam at them ?
I have a lot on my plate at the moment but if you want to 'personal message' me we can be in touch more privately.
Look for the little bright things in each day and remember that the mind is a powerful thing. Celebrate some small things and you may overcome the nasties.
Keep chatting
Summer :-)
