Hi! I don’t know if anyone will see this but I need some advice and kind words please.

I feel a bit uncomfortable posting this because I don’t like to complain about my living situation and I’m very grateful for what I do have but lately I’ve been feeling a lot of anxiety and depression since Christmas is just a few days away and I have no money for any type of presents for my kids.

a bit of my story is that I’m a single mother of 3 I don’t work because I have 3 lower back herniated disc’s and my kids have health issues that require a lot of doctors appointment so even if I wanted to work I couldn’t. I don’t receive any government help, but I have managed to find a way with God’s help to keep going and take it day by day.

The only thing I get is $37 in child support for one of my kids ( he has a different father but is not in his life) my story is complicated and long but that’s part of it, anyway I can’t help but feel so much guilt and anger towards myself because I can’t give my kids much. Although for us the most important thing is family and spending a lot of time together not the material things but since they are kids they expect something for Christmas and I can’t give them anything so with my depression getting so bad and all the negative thoughts I’ve been having I guess I have forgotten the actual meaning of Christmas, but still can’t help feeling like I’m the worst mother in the world for not being able to work and provide a better life for my family!

Don’t get me wrong please! I’m not writing this because I need pity or money or anything like that I just need a few kind words of encouragement and some support, because I know this too will pass and make stronger.. I hope🤞 #Depression #Anxiety #feelinghopeless #CHRISTMASBLUES #FeelingAlone #Cananyonerelate #BackPain #Bekind
