And you know, we've lost so many people in our family.

We've had a lot of things happen.

And my dad has like,

just been a rock through it all like and i just like i'm so proud of him for that and i feel like that with this postpartum was like kind of the first time i felt like my dad was like there for me it was like it was not a secret to anyone who knows me that i was like down i felt like i just i never figured out who i wanted to be

Here I'm raising my kids, time's just like flying by.

I have a teenager, he's taller than me.

Where did time go?

I don't know what I wanna do.

I don't even know who I am.

I can hardly talk about my stillborn son at this point.

I just was like not in a good place mentally and I hated myself.

And I just feel like there were so many years of like guilt and trauma and loss.

And I let that define who I was.

Like I just fully let that like wash over me and that's who I was.

And it was affecting everyone around me at that point.

Like I feel like

up until then it wasn't but when i hit postpartum it was like my depression was affecting everybody you never knew what was going to happen highs and lows like you never knew what mood i was going to be in my kids were like mom you gotta like chill like just like they didn't have a happy mom for sure and so i feel like 2024

I hit a breaking point and was like, it is time for me to do the work and take charge of my life.

So I did.

I feel like I dove into so many things.
