Narelle,
I was was depressed since I was 19 years old, now I'm 39. I hid it from the world; my husband didn't even know. Three years ago, I decided to get help. I have four children; 20, 16, 6 and 3. BELIEVE ME! my "second set" see a much calmer, patient, happy mother than the "first set". (both from the same marriage, by the way). I've tried several times to do without them and I've come to the conclusion that I just can't. I always sink back into depression again. If you feel that you need them for whatever reason, PLEASE do so. Don't let anyone tell you what kind of a mother you are.
Good Luck!! Catherine
