Well it doesn't seem fair that it takes so long. If you are acutely depressed and consider yourself unable to safely care for yourself or others then you need to request and emergency intake. Then you will be assessed immediately. The earlier you go in in the morning the better but expect to set for hours waiting a turn. If you are that accutely depressed then you need to be prepared to have someone step in and care for your children. There are programs that provide respite care for Special needs moms so they can seek treatment. Contact your local United Way First Call for Help. A phone operator will know the listing. I am frequently on line if you need someone to talk to.

ok so today i got a visit from a social worker My EX-boyfriend the father of my son called and reported that i am a bad parent and is trying to have my kids taken from me. Can he use my depression to do this because hes trying? I am a good mom i love my kids i try to do every thing wright but we all make mistakes so i am not saying I am perfect but really my kids are well taken care of. I try so hard to make there life good and happy for them they have what they need and I don't let them go with out but I don't know what to do I cant louse my kids they are my world.

I wish that were there are kids involved that my ex and i could get along but we just don't. I try not to say bad things about him but hes always talking down about me. the things he says he knows are not true this stress makes the depression worse for me.

Anyone have advice on what i can do ???
