Not being able to drive doesn't mean you're useless, plenty of people don't drive, you're giving yourself such a hard time about it, it doesn't make you any less of a person than any of the drivers out there. It doesn't make you less capable of anything (other than driving of course :P). Not being able to drive doesn't mean you have to stay somewhere you don't want to be, and be treated a way you don't deserve to be treated.
Car or no car, you can do it if you want it.
*hugs* I'm sorry things are difficult right now for you. I hope things improve.

Thank you Lisa Michelle for your thoughts! I do put myself down so much about not driving and many things. My self esteem is so low my depression has never been worse and not being able to do something that most people do makes me feel even more like a "failure" or a loser. For the most part better finances and driving would get me away from him easier. Most of all my self esteem and my state of mind right now are keeping me from moving ahead. I am trying to get better One way is coming here. I want to start studying for my GED soon which I think would help me with my self esteem a little.
