Maybe ive lost all hope

i'm a young mom w c&c of my kid (4yo). ive been feeling down n suicidal recently. theres no specific reason, but rather an accumulation of everything that has happened to me. honestly, the only reason im still here is because of my kid. and its a vicious cycle, i think about how if i'm gone its gonna affect my LO, then i get more depressed then i think of LO then it repeats. my current relationship is of no help too, my partner only makes me feel worse about myself and constantly put me down. My parents don't know whats going on and they will never understand. honestly i dont think my depression ever went away during my pregnancy up till today. Im really struggling everyday, i cant afford to see a counsellor or therapist. i'm earning a 1k job for myself n my kid. im rly at wits end.

Hi, wadever u are going thru now I hope u know u know that it’s not the end of the world and pls dun give up. I know how depressing life can be as I have dealing with depression and anxiety issues for the longest time. There are times whereby u feel nobody knows what you are going through and felt alone in this world. But all these will pass and it’s because chemical imbalance in our hormones. Do you have any close friends tt u can speak to? A mini support group? Even 1 close friend is sufficient. Any siblings? Sometimes we think our parents don’t understand but it’s because we never open up our heart to them too. In most cases, family will never give up on one another. If there is a need to get out of the toxic marriage/ relationship then make the decision to do so to save urself and your LO. Move back to your parents house and gain the support of your family first. By cutting off certain toxic relationship but empower urself and make you feel less depressed also. Keep us updated? Wish u all the best 🙂
