Article: Supermoms and Depression

Having too high expectations of yourself in all areas of life can create depression. Being super-mom and allowing your kids to have and do everything they want is not making your children happier. Kids need to have disappointments in life, and know that life is real with many emotions. Super moms are often depressed because of fatigue. Taking time for yourself to just relax and read a magazine not only staves off depression but makes you a better and more relaxed mom.
 
Very accurate information!... I can relate. I recently just seperated from my husband and am having a really hard time with it. Along with work and my daughter I'm having a hard time juggling it all. I've been in a weird mood..sort of blank and complacent...and I'm hoping once I come out of this funk I can try to create some good energy for myself. I am fatique..inside and out. I agree with Carol4...taking time for yourself is a good way to help cope.
