Postpartum depression, abusive relationship, suicide....????!


Question: I am currently about 4 months postpartum and I take Celexa for postpartum depression. I have a rocky and abusive relationship with my child's father, as he currently is taking ecstasy pills heavily and has become VERY abusive. Last Sunday he beat me with a belt and pulled a knife on me. I had to run out of the house naked to my neighbor's to get away from him. I left him, put him in jail and he bailed out. Now he is seeing another girl and it is eating me up inside. Deep down I know I deserve better but I don't know how Iwill live without him. In fact I don't really want to. The only thing that keeps me going is my kids, but honestly its getting harder every day. I keep thinking that i should kill myself, but then I wonder what would happen to my kids. So then I start thinking I should kill them too because life is just awful. I don't really want to do these things but it's like I can't control my thoughts, I'm even crying right now.

You need to get yourself together because you are not only harming yourself but your unborn child. You need to stay out of that relationship PERIOD. You know it isn't good for you or your children. You need to get help NOW. The thought of you killing your self is bad enough but to take your children's live isn't the answer. Go see your doctor NOW don't wait. I have been in bad situations, and the thought of how you must feel breaks my heart. While I thought my situation was bad, it was never that bad, although at the time I thought it was, I never thought of killing my kids. You are in desperate need of help, Please seek it out as we are no good to you if you don't talk to someone. Where are your parents, are they in the picture can they help you in any way?? Do you have a church that you could talk to your minister? YOU DO DESERVE BETTER THAN WHAT YOU HAVE. GET HELP NOW

you can IM or email me if you need to

you feel like you can't live without him because he's a tool.

you need to think of your children if you can't think of anyone else. would you like them to grow up witnessing this? is this fair for them? would you like this asshole to raise your children if their mother wasn't here? not to mention, you don't deserve any of that.

i've been in an abusive relationship too. i know what it's like.

stay away from him. and stay away from his new girlfriend. you're better off (and safer).

Go to a hospital, right now. Call 911 if you can't or don't know where to go. You need help now. Your thoughts are very disturbing. There is light and hope waiting for you if you are willing to look for it and strive for it. I have been suicidal- I tried to kill myself twice- you can feel better if you put your kids first and get some help now.
