Close Family & Friends of Cancer Patients
Hello. I'm a primary caregiver of my mom who is in stage 4 breast cancer. I'm also a single mother to a special needs child. I'm finding myself shaking my head yes to your stories. I too feel overwhelmed, sad, blessed (to be able to spend alot of time with my mom) and frightened. I'm glad to have found a support group.
Close Depression
Type: Clinical (Major) DepressionI've been battling depression for over 25 years. I've found meds don't help me.

I look forward to meeting others who truly understand what it feels like to be sad all the time and can't get out of it.
