(6,154 posts)That was a powerful and moving post. I thank you greatly for it. I'm sorry to hear your son suffers from depression and PTSD, he evidently has an AMAZING father to support him however. Actually so do I come to think of it. I suppose over the years I have gotten rather tired of returning to square one. It's true that you never truly do, and I do indeed learn something every time I pick myself up. But well, running a marathon by the good old, 10 steps forward and 9 back, well it gets tiring. And I've burned my bridges, so to speak, enough times that I've left a string of embarrassing messes in my wake. I've been suffering from a lot of physical exhaustion these past few months as well which I'm trying to run to ground with my family DR. I'm going to see if I can find some better counseling services than I've had in the past. And hopefully a change in medication as the ones I'm on now aren't the most beneficial. I was seeing a psychiatrist and a therapist off and on but didn't click with either of them. Nowhere is the DR patient relationship more important than with mental health professionals. Again thank you for the inspirational post!
