I am going to ask you all for your thoughts and prayers right now. DH and I are having some issues that we are working though together, as well as I have some personal issues that I need to work on. All of our issues that we have been having finally came out in the open and we decided we need to start going to marriage counseling and I need to get help also. I finally openly admitted to DH that I think I have been depressed for years now and it has only gotten worse postpartum for both kids. We are committed to making our marriage work so we are trying anything possible we can right now to do so. We both deactivated our Facebook accounts, so you won't be able to reach me there any longer. I just didn't want any of you to think I deleted you or anything. I am still going to be coming on the board though because I enjoy all of the posts and advice here. Our family just needs as much support as we can get right now. I know you ladies will understand. Thank you.
Re: T&P's
Good luck with everything, and I'm glad you'll still come hang out around here! I hope you and your DH get what you need out of the counseling and that everything will work out for the best.

And, kudos to you for admitting to yourself and your DH that you need help. Depression sucks. My thoughts and prayers will be with all of you during this time.
Lots of love.

Lots of T&P heading your way. Praying for the best for you and your family. I'm glad that you have taken the steps both individually and together to seek help. Sometimes that is the hardest step to make.
T&P's for you and your family. I'm sorry you are going through this time, but it's great both you and DH are determined to make it work. Being on the same page on making it work is wonderful and will help you a lot.
Granted I don't know the whole situation, but I think getting yourself healthy and feeling better will be an amazing help to your relationship. I've struggled with anxiety/depression my entire life and my relationships definitely struggle when I'm not.
We're here for you.
T&Ps for you and your family. I hope things work out for the best.
I don't have kids and I haven't been to personal counseling, but I have been to marital counseling. Please PM me if you have any questions or need anything. It really was the best thing we ever did for ourselves, we're stronger than ever.
Couldn't have said it better. T&P's your way.
I have dealt with anxiety, and a smidge of depression at various points in my life. It is HUGE that you have "labeled" what you think the problem is, and now you can move forward and get help for it. It took me a long time to give into getting help for my own issues, but once I did, I kicked myself for waiting so long!
I hope that both you, and you and your H, are able to work through everything. You know that we are here for you for whatever you need. Big hugs and positive thoughts to you!!
I'm sorry you're having troubles, but it's so great that you both have recognized the issues and are willing to get the outside help you need. Lots of T&P to you and your DH through this whole thing.
