i couldn't read your post and not 
you. we have to. we have no alternative. but we must be gentle with ourselves, too. we are frail and human. we will made mistakes. there will be crappy days. but we will all come out on the other side because we are fighters for our children. you are a fighter, too and you can make it through anything. make a space for yourself because you have to be well taken care of in order to care for someone else.

I'm having a REALLY hard time. Today was a really rough day. I had an emotional breakdown, during which I was slapped across the face with the harsh reality that I'm alone here. I had no idea who I could call to help me, there's really nobody. I have no idea what I'm going to do. How I'm going to survive. I'm sorry if I'm being overly dramatic, but I truly feel this way. I am so depressed. Please tell me it's normal to feel this hopeless. And that it gets better.
