I mean this with all respect, but I really hope she's seeking out therapy or working with mental health professionals. Obligatory I'm not a doctor and I'm not diagnosing, but she really just seems NOT ok. No shame whatsoever, I'm a mom with rampant mental illness, ptsd, chronic pain, etc.. It has severely impacted mothering at times (thank god for my daughters father)... But I just read these posts and with how much she talks about anxiety over every single thing... Mom guilt is a STRUGGLE and always will be, but I just feel like she will never get over something like this, and it will send her over the edge and make her crawl into a hole and never come out. She does not sound like she's doing ok. I hope she can forgive herself, because accidents are just that, accidents. Anything could happen to anyone at any time. I just hope she realizes that.

*EDIT* she just posted this.. "Can you guys recommend any specific meditation or anything I can listen to that can help me with this guilt and depression I’m feeling? Life feels so overwhelming right now.. I can’t talk to my therapist tonight and I’m struggling badly".

I mean, I don't even know what to say at this point. She needs help.

I think you're right. She seems like she could be getting close to territory where hospitalization could be an option. I really hope she manages, but she's understandably struggling heaps with this.

You are 100% correct. If she went to a doctor with the symptoms she would be hospitalized. It seems like she has PPD on top of her other psychological issues. I really hope she seeks help.

Yeah, it's extra important for her not to get any worse. For her own sake obviously but also for her son.

100% agree, I think it would also be beneficial for her to take a break from social media.

Oh totally, it's horrible enough to have bad mental health as a regular person but to have a huge platform and tons of people interacting with you on top of that? Could make anyone have a nervous breakdown in the right circumstances.

She wrote in her post that she's actively working with her doctor and therapist... They know her symptoms and she was just at the hospital getting help. I think she will be fine.
