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.

that's really a tough phase to be in. glad you're reaching out for some support here. Accumulation of stress and exhaustion can lead to a vicious cycle like what you described. When your mood is very down, everything will SEEM hopeless but know that does not represent the truth. Things can get better with the right support. there are affordable counselling services (or even free if you are not working) at Family Service Centres at all Hdb estates , and places like Care Corner Counselling Centre and Shanyou Counselling Centre. please seek professional help, you deserve to be happier for yourself and your LO. Counsellors can provide a safe space for you to share your troubles, and guide you to see what your personal values and priorities are, journey with you step by step to improve your mood and life situation. It's tough to do this on your own when your mood is already down and you're mentally tired.
