What To Even Do -

The main thrust of this post is mainly just to seek others who may have been in similar ways.

After a marriage breakdown, we have a child together, I moved out. But. But I don't have anywhere to go.

The marriage broke down because - because - it just did. No drink. Violence. Affairs. Nothing like that.

I think we just forgot we were married. I moved out because small matters would become big arguments and it was becoming a hostile place. We needed space.

So I left.

I sofa surfed. I came back 'home' every few days to see daughter. She - she's fabulous. Just all types of fab. But I've been living rough. Freezing at night. Using swimming pool changing rooms to shower. Not eating. Just sleeping or walking outside - go to work in day - pretending all is okay.

I lost my job back in November. Redundancies. And just got myself a new job and maybe - maybe - once my income is back in positive I can hurl myself out of this pit.

I dunno.

I'm not gonna break the subs rules to talk about how im feeling and how I wish I wasn't here. But. I dunno.

Anyone with half a less stressed and anxiety filled brain know what to do.i just feel useless and pathetic and im just so done.
