Thank you for posting this. Not only is my mother a non-diagnosed depressive who can find something wrong in everything, she also suffered post-partum depression after my birth.
"children that mature in a sadness not their own"
that says iti am a mother of a daughter
she was born when i was 39
after years of therapy i felt i could raise a child without being mean and judgmentalmy mother's negativity and depression still slays me
she is 83 and sorry to be alivethanks again
