Someone To Talk To

That is what I need. I’m going through so much right now I feel so burdensome on my loved ones that I don’t want to talk to them about it and I can’t afford therapy for another few months.

I’m a single mom but my parents have guardianship of my child. They are divorced and my mother is abusive and is using the guardianship to control my entire family. I’m trying to file to end it but I’ve been poor my whole life and it’s so hard. I lost her because of brief drug addiction and my family refuses to acknowledge my progess.

I fell in love with someone very healthy for me and they left me due to their own mental health and feelings that they can’t connect to anyone. They’ve reached back out to me in regards to revisiting our situation but when they left they really damaged my and my daughters mental health.

I left social media, also for mental health reasons, and I’m so happy I did. But it’s left me more isolated. I hesitate to reach out to friends because the last few years have been hard on everyone and I don’t want to be burdensome. Plus they offer me so much support in other ways that I don’t feel like adding to the pile.

So if anyone has a listening ear I’d be so grateful.
