I'm sorry I don't agree with you, if I just was diagnosed with Diabetes the county would come in and take the kids too. It would be too much of an unknown risk to them because I would be learning to take care of my own health needs. Same with cancer, or any other medical issue.
Same with a medical mental issue, you need time to address the symptoms and get help. If I thought that I was seriously depressed or in need of mental help then I would get it like I would address any other medical issue.
The difference here is that I would like to talk to someone just to relive the stress, not because of an imbalance of neurotransmitters.
You are right in that there shouldn't be a stigma involved, but the county would come in and take the kids if I were diagnosed with any major medical issue that could impact that care I can take of the kids.
A person with a controlled issue with anxiety/depression is different than a person with a new condition.
I am thankful that I do not have that type of issue, I just need more support and am getting it through a variety of places, here included, instead of through counseling. I just was leaning toward the couseling since it would be non-judgemental.
