in Mamas with depression, anxiety, and other mental health disorders

Does anyone else.feel incredibly sad and jealous around supportive families?

We went to a birthday party this weekend and there was four generations of family that liked each other and were.super happy to he there for the child's birthday. It made me feel terrible that I was so angry that my kids don't have anyone like that. We didn't even have a birthday party for them this year because the previous year I spent so much time begging people to attend and a lot of wasted money on food when the turnout was extremely poor. Nobody cares to visit my twins, help in any way or even ask how my sons health concerns are. I just went home feeling angry and depressed. This isn't the first time and of course I cannot force anyone to care about my kids it's just sad. Does anyone else feel this way?

Show your support

I did before I cried so much about it but then I looked at my kids and saw how happy they are just with their dad and I. We go above and beyond for them and we will always go the extra mile they have huge birthday parties and we don't care who comes the ppl who truly care show up and the ppl who don't won't but our kids have big birthday parties we can eat left overs all week idc lol don't let other ppl make u feel bad about your life. Sure support would be lovely but if u don't have it don't let your kids feel it provide extra love extra support for your children <3

Me, it's bad. I get extremely sad n disappointed when no one wants to be apart of my daughter or my life. Birthday parties be bad n I put n alot of work.. dad doesn't understand.. I'm building a friend/family currently so I wont be lonely no more n have support.. I don't want to live my life around unsupported or hatred ppl. I want a tight circle

@Erica friends just don't seem to last long for us. Thier kids outgrow my son developmentally and they just stop responding. I don't have anyone at all right now. The birthday party we just attended I'm sure I haven't seen them in 6-8 months. They didn't remember my kids birthday in April.

I'll say try joining my pods sometime,or any pod. you'll find similar women with same problems and its a big mood changer, you'll be surprise how much support n love u get from it. Families are skeptical with children delay and don't want there kids catching whatever it is..🤨😒 it's nothing but anxiety for them so don't take it to personal.. that shit been spreading like wildfire. We just have to find our people.. I just started a new group with women moving forward with there lives .. it's about growth and self love.. u should join..

When my older son had his 1st birthday I was too fixated on who wasn't there - his own dad and grandad. It put a dampener on things til I realised it was a beautiful day and me and mum made it happen

@Erica nobody can catch a disability it's bad luck and genes

@Rebecca I know that, but they dont.. they thinking mentally, socially. Just trying to help

@Erica he deserves everything everyone else takes for granted. It doesn't make me feel better that people feel he's contagious or dirty.
