Hi Callie, welcome to the forum and thank you for sharing. This is a good place to share and unload. I find the members here are supportive and non-judgement. So please feel free to talk about the things you faced or are facing. A little about myself. I’m a 42 yo Christian woman. Single mum, a Daughter and 2 dogs (chihuahua and poodle). I groom my own dogs. I had depression some years ago. Have been talking to a therapist who specialise in EMDR therapy and that helped me to cope and regulate my emotions better. Above all, my faith helped me a great deal. Do share with us more about maybe where you are from and if you are talking to any counsellor or therapist to help you cope? Keep well and take care. God bless!
