I am 19 years old married attending college and expecting a baby. My husband son and i live with my parents along with my two sisters and my brother . The other day i asked my sister what she plans to do with her life and she said she plans to move far away. She does not mind only seening family on special ocassions. I found this heartbreaking. I am so close to my family and just thinkinging about how we will all be scattered around the country depresses me. Theese are the people i love and grew up with. In addition i cant stop thinking about how life for my parents will be like in the years to come. my parents are in their mid 40s work at a factorys assembly line and come home tierd everyday. It brings tears to my eyes to witness the development of arthritis in my mothers hands due to the intense labor at work. It scares me to think of my parents future because they cant speak english. what will they do what will they live off of how will they make their home payments? The simply thought of my mother developing depression due to seperation from her children and arthritis breaks my heart i cant stop thinking about it. I now its a part of life but im barley realizing it. I only plan to become succesfull and help finish paying my parents home as a token of my gratitude twords them. They have helped me out so much that i beleive that is the least i can do. but how do i stop feeling depressed.

This is a common problum people commonly worry about;
the future.
All you have to remember is to live for today.
Yesterday was yesterday, and is over with.
And tommorow is a mystery.
All you can control is today.
So live it to the fullest, and learn from your mistakes.
I seriously would recomend some everyday counciling.
Even if you don't have a specific problum to talk about, counciling is a great thing to look into, and gives you a different perspective and opinuin.
Please, do it for yourself, and try looking into some type of counciling.
It;s something too look forward too.
Set a specific date every week to go.
It will do wondurs.
As nike says; Just do it!!
Hope I helped.
Good luck on your journey!!
Appreciate every day.
Stay on course with your own, honorable and secure feelings, and your plans for the future. Families scatter inevitably. Good siblings and poor ones. Seek out all aid available for your parents, We can only do as much as we can do. A good job is one not left undone. There are always regrets and uncompleted dreams. By doing right your life and the lives of others will be proven better. We can only do our best and be secure in the outcome. Most regrets and anxieties are relieved by time. If depression begins to harm you or others, seek help. I deeply sympathize and pray for you and your family.
Well, as i daughter i understand what you feel but i think all you have to do is to think positively and always be open to all the possibilities.Your trying your best to serve your parents as your serving your own family.Just be positive about future and always be there for them and trust to God
