Is it normal to feel sad all the time?

Separation anxiety will lead to depression and real problems if you don't get help with it. get counseling. It really does help. My daughter has been through the exact same thing with her older sister raising her daughter. I and her mom, and her sister and brother and friends talked to her about it all the time, and it was not making much of a difference. I don't know why, but seeing a professional outside the family seemed to make all the difference. The counseling turned everything around. Get the help. There is nothing wrong with you. What you are going through just proves how strong your love is and how good a mother you will be when the time finally comes. Someone as good as you should not have to go around messed up over this all the time.

Whoa. If you were suicidal, you weren't in a good place to be giving your son away.... and if your family doesn't understand that, they're nuts. Adoption can be a beautiful thing but only under the right circumstances. I would fight that legally.... only you know if that's the right thing to do, but don't let other people pressure you into sticking with decisions that never felt right.

i would seek more professional help i suffered from depression, but going to a counselor helped me. it might also help to talk to his adopted parents. in terms of being happy i recommend the book "the art of happiness" its helped me through a lot of hard times. i would sit your sister down with a third party and talk through your concerns and sadness. best of luck.

No.
