First of all I just wanted to say, antibiotics ALWAYS make me very noticeably depressed. So you may want to take that under consideration.
Secondly, its not whining, its venting and sharing with friends who understand where you're coming from. I write here not only for those things, but because writing it out is a catharsis of some sort for me. For some reason I don't get the same feeling from just journaling, I need to be writing TO somebody. I guess I need that support, just someone to say, "I understand", "I would have done the same thing", or even, "maybe you should rethink this".
As for your son, I can't even imagine how bad it would be to know he's living on the streets. I mean, you can understand the thought process of: don't be a crutch, don't be an enabler, he has to find out the hard way. But still, its your kid! You'd have to be a robot or something not to be freaked out about it.
I'm really glad your husband was understanding about your feelings. That should make a big difference for you. And making that chart sounds like a fantastic idea. I have something tangible to refer to when my mind gets all cluttered and confused.

I've been experiencing the same thing lately. It sucks. I guess all you can do is keep on trucking. I'll hang in there if you will.-T
