Raising children while dealing with depression

This is a tough situation, but overcoming it is not impossible. You cannot give what you do not have, so you need to take care of yourself first. If your children are able to discern your depression, they might grow up thinking that is how life is.
You might employ a nanny for the meantime, at least until you feel better.
 
It's never easy to handle depression while you ha e kids. I have a neighbour that suffered from emotional blackmail for the husband, making the man to leave them without caring for them again. This woman fall apart coupled with depression on how to train the children.

We the neighbours helped out in making sure she take her meds and we always help the kids to do things without bothering their mom. Thanks to God that she's alive and bubbling with her kids.
