I won't tell the whole story. I just don't have the patience for it right now. Here's the gist:
I'm a single mom dealing with post-pardum depression and grief at the loss of the relationship I had with my daughter's father. Last night I finally admitted that I needed some help moving on. During the day I can fight it--keep busy, talk to people. But at night, I'm alone with my thoughts, and it becomes too much for me to handle. If it weren't for the fact that my daugther needs me to be alert, I'd go take a few sips of the bourbon in my mom's pantry and numb this a little. How do I move on when I can't be alone for five minutes without falling apart?
