You're Not Alone
“My behavior took a nose dive... I put myself in numerous life threatening situations... My life was empty…”
“I was devastated. I grieved. Alone. I blamed myself. I’d been careless and irresponsible.”
“I still get depressed and angry when I think about it.”
“I find myself crying sometimes when I am alone. Without trying to understand why I am crying, I begin to think of the baby.”
