I would like to have a family + worries

[Miss_XxAriaxX]

Hi, there's not a lot of members going to the parenting sub forum, so I'll put this here because I'm asking for your thoughts and advice.


I want to have a family, but obviously if I keep being single, it won't happen. I don't want to adopt or raise a child alone although they are people who divorce and raise their child alone.

However my biggest worries are how can I help my child, if he is depressed. What if he is intimidated ? When I was younger I was alienated, it was hard. There are parts of my life that I felt depressed. I'm still sensible, emotionally not stable... I sometimes see my mom breaking down, and I don't even know what to do, what to say.

I want to have a family, because I want to love the child, see their smile, watch them grow.

To raise a family, I must love living first isn't ?

When it comes to parenting, there are a lot of things that terrify me. There are a lot of things I'm not sure how I'll handle when it happens. (Like my children's first heartache)

I have my husband to bounce ideas off of and my best friend. There are also a lot of support online if you can find the right forums to go on. Private groups on facebook for instance.

I'm actually looking to start small time therapy and hope to go on to get medicated for some of my issues that I don't want my children to pay for.
