Where do you go when you're no longer add value?
Depression & Anxiety | Last Active: Sep 20, 2023 | Replies (39)Comment receiving replies
As I age and struggle with medical issues I find myself wanting to stay in and sleep. I struggle with depression and anxiety and am on an antidepressant and Clonazam. The Clonazapam doesn’t help 100 percent and I feel the combination of the two drugs may not be the right combination but I have been in them for ever. Aging is a factor, I’m sure and I feel guilty as I cannot be tbe grandmother I would like to be. I’m soon going to be 77.

I understand completely where you are coming from. I feel like I was a bad daughter because I didn't have my mom live with me. She needed help and I felt like it was more than I could do. I did take care of her but not always in my home. I had no one to help. I suffer with depression and anxiety since being a teenager. I am 71 years old.
Let's try and think that we did and are doing the best we can. I can't seem to do it, but let's keep trying. Enjoy your time with the children when you are with them. I remember all the good times with my mom.
Love and peace
