Getting more help - Suggestions?

More Details:

My son is 6 months old. He has had quite a few medical issues. And for that fact so have I. Is there any way to ask someone for help because you feel like you are about to break without telling them the whole story about why you need the help so bad?
I have told my husband and my sister-in-law and they just don't seem to get it.

Changeling

I've heard people say that it's hard to talk to your family, friends, etc. because they can't be objective. If you can find a social worker or therapist that would be ideal. You can even go to a local church or temple and speak with a priest or rabbi. These are people who are trained to listen.

Even sometimes writing in a diary can be helpful ... just getting the thoughts and feelings out in some way is therapeutic.
