I am 43 and have an 8year old and 18 year old both girls and of course a husband. (We've been married now for 7 months) (Been divorced since 2000). I am extremely unhappy, depressed and just don't care anymore. Thoughts of suicide cross my mind on a daily basis. But it's my 8year old that keeps me alive!

Just keep walking, eat right and try to sleep at night

I can tell you what my hobbies use to be! Woodworking, flower garden, sewing, remodeling, painting, hiking, walking, reading, basketball, houseplants, believe it or not but cleaning! Playing with the kids.

My favorite things sit in storage three miles away. I think that is my problem, I have nothing to do. My husband believes the yard belongs to the dog, therefore I cannot plant anything. Which I'm not asking for the entire front lawn, the dog already owns the entire back yard! The yard looks like trash, its' crazy.

To not be so depressed. Be able to have a yard that I can plant flowers even if it means leaving my husband! For my daughters to complete school and go to college to make something of themselves. I hope the world will be a better and brighter place for all children. Live your dreams don't just dream about it.
