Hi Vicki,

I'm so sorry you are having such a rough day. I've had those and thank goodness

I'm not having one today so I can be there for you. It's the good thing about a

support group. When some of us are down, the others may be up.

Please don't feel like a bad mother. Those three great children love their

mother and don't want her to feel bad. They are old enough for you to just be

honest with them and tell them that mommy is haveing a bad day and that you need

to rely on them today. Someone wrote on here that when their kids were young

while they had this beast, they would put in a Disney movie and all of them

would watch together. Maybe you could lie on the sofa and let them be around you

- I know you probably don't want to be touched, but you can explain that too.

Then these will be good memories.

Even if you have to go in your room and close the door and cry or just be sad,

that's OK too. We've all been there and the kids adjust. Just tell them you may

need them to take care of some things for you right now. There's nothing wrong

with them havnig some things to do to help you out. They could bring you

something or whatever. Help them be a part of making you feel better - if it's

only by leaving you alone.

I hope tomorrow is better.

I just want to cry today, I haven't felt this bad in three years! I

feel like it is such an effort just to breathe today. I hurt so bad

and I just want to cry I am so frustrated! I have three girls to take

care of. They are 11, 9, and 6. I don't think that they really

understand what is wrong with me and I feel like a terrible mother on

days like this because they have to pretty much fend for themselves. I

feel awful and just need a good cry but I think it will take too much

effort and energy. I hope everyone is feeling ok today. Gentle Hugs,

Vicki
