this guy, know you are not alone, and there are people who care, including members in this community, as you’ve seen.
i understand slipping into despair when it seems like you just can’t seem to get a break, and you feel the weight of the world on your shoulders.
but please believe, it will get better.
and your little girl counts on you for your unconditional love, and to be an example of resiliency. show her that no matter how hard things get, you will always be there for her, to love her and help guide her through her life. your love, compassion, emotional support, and care for her are vital to her well being, now and always.
if you don’t have family or friends you can count on to help, try reaching out to your religious community for suuport – even if you are not an active member of an organization or very religious, you should be able to find some support and guidance.
look into support services through the government and also through the school system. in my area they have services for very low income families including day care/pre school programs and free meals at school for those who qualify. if you are having trouble securing a job due to your ad/hd, perhaps you would qualify for some type of disability support income as well as other services/support. check every avenue you can.
check out all the tools here on this site that can help manage your difficulties. it’s trial and error, find what works for you.
it’s a very dark time now for many, but hope you can believe, as i do, that better times are ahead
