And I’m afraid I can’t ignore it. I have put it off so many times. I even hate myself for not going through with it before, I regret going to the ER when I had the will to end it all.
Even now as a mother, I am full of pain, loneliness, sorrow. I see no light at the end of the tunnel even though I try. I love my son but the pain is too much to live with. From age 4 ’til now my life has been terrible. One bad thing after the next. Where is my break? Where’s my happiness? Apparently, there isn’t any of that for me.
I try to enjoy being a mother but I can’t even afford basic things like a vehicle, decent place to live, etc. I reached out to my family, was told they’d help me with whatever I needed to get on my feet and that was a lie. Why bother saying things like that, have me come all the way to a new state and not keep your word?!
I even tried reaching out to strangers and that didn’t work. I guess most people assume something is wrong either me if even my family and friends won’t help at all so why bother.
Well, I have no friends. I have had any in years. I left an abusive relationship to have a better life and it seems like it was a huge mistake to leave. Jim Threatening My Life And treating my son as if he is some gross, unimportant thing doesn’t seem so bad now. At least we had a nice house to live in, plenty of food to eat, a ride to doctors appointments and never came close to running out of diapers.
I feel like my life is a huge joke. I used to think to myself I must be having a nightmare, I’ll wake up soon and it will be over. I’ll be back enjoying my normal happy life. Only I never woke up. It finally set in that life really has been shit and every time I try to make it better there’s no way out of the darkness or someone blocking me.
No matter how much I value myself others still view me as nothing/not worthy. I will never see a light at the end of my tunnel, this is why the wisest thing for me to do is die.

each time i read a post from a mom, my heart breaks. i know pain, i know fear, sorrow, hopelessness, but i cannot begin to imagine the amount of guilt each one of you must feel or how torn you are to stay with your baby in agony or give in to peace-
i am sorry for your pain- please know, i do not judge- only you can decide what is best for you and your baby-
would his dad send money? or are you scared to contact him? Maybe your family will come through? sometimes, people will surprise you… your due a break for sure
good luck mama
