So, This Is Kinda Hard For Me.
Posted: 03-13-07 20:32pm

I am feeling so down right now. I hate feeling like this. I feel like I am not good enough and that I can't be a mother. I hate my after baby body, my sudden weight gain, and just being lonely. What is this all about? I know that I have a beautiful baby girl and wonderful place to live and I should be happy that I am working, but i just feel like i am not good enough for my daughter, my job, and not good enough to find someone who is going to love me for me. Brandon just kind of used me...I almost feel like I was trash for leaving him but now that I did I found out how he treated me.

I am so depressed, I feel like crying all the time. I don't, because solders don’t cry. They are strong. I really miss Shawn. I miss him so much. I just wish he were here with me experiencing everything that I am experiencing with Melia. It’s just not fair that I have to go through this alone, I didn’t clime on myself and become pregnant. I know that he didn’t like just walk away from me, but I can’t help but wish he were here for me and his little one. I loved him so much. I feel alone, so alone.

I hate feeling like this. I can’t sleep; I am eating like a pig. I just want to drown in my bath and never come out. No, I don’t want to kill myself. I just feel so blah I guess.

Sorry for the downer…but thanks for listening.

seriously gen you are doing so much. i can't imagine being in your situation, you really are strong. I'm sorry you are feeling like this, i so wish i could give you a hug. You are a great mommy though, and amelia is lucky to have you! Don't doubt yourself. There are no perfect families, and there are no perfect parents, all that anyone can do is their best. and i really think you are. i hope you feel better soon pal.

Thanks ladies....I am kinda feeling a little better today. I guess Shawn's birthday was last week and I was just missing him. oh and i found the bottle of 30 year old wine that was given to us on your wedding day. we were going to save it for our 10 year or the day we got divorced. lol i know that is weird...but hell we were an odd couple. so...it's been sitting on my dresser for a few days...and i have just been looking at it. I have gained like 10 lbs in three weeks...what the hell is that? oh my god.....oh and my little girl doesn't need her mama anymore. I know she does...but she is a big girl now. Sad almost 8 months now. Shocked i'll get over this and be myself again.

Raising kids is no easy job and your doing it alone, as well as working a full-time job!! I'm sure it's easy to get down and feel blah, but you should be giving yourself a big pat on the back.

Go buy yourself something!!! Get a manicure!!!

Your a great mom!
