 | | | NEXT MESSAGE |  |  |  | | AUTHOR: | Jannai | DATE: 03/10/03 2:07am | | SUBJECT: | New |  |  | Hi all. I'm Jannai and I've been dealing with depression off and on for years. It became very bad after the birth of my children, and after my third (I have five) I was hospitalized. I'm now on medication and my youngest is 11 mos., but I'm just now recovering from the post partum depression I had then. I'm also a homeschooling mom, and that part isn't stressful for me. It's the light of my life, teaching my children. But I have a husband who suffers from Mania, so he's not very helpful. Circumstantially I'm under a great deal of stress without much of a relief.
I'm glad to find this message board. Sometimes it's just nice to have a place to talk to others who understand your ups and downs. I have an egroup/yahoogroup that's just like this but you can interact via email and right now it's just me and a friend called Pregnant/Parenting with Depression. If anyone's interested in joining us, feel free to email me. Jannai@carolina.rr.com.
I'm looking forward to getting to know everyone here.
