I'm so sorry this happened. I think all of us at sometime or another has lost someone we loved.

You have got to find some help someway. You really need to speak to a therapist. I know you have no income, but perhaps you can apply for assistance? Depression can be a serious illness, and needs taking care of. Just because you didn't hit it off with 3 therapist, doesn't mean there isn't one out there that you CAN relate to. Many times we have to keep looking for one that we can talk to. I had the same trouble thru the years --- I couldn't find one that felt really "good." Finally, after going thru about 4, I found THE one, and she really helped me. I stayed with her for a long time.

When you break up after a long-term relationship, you have to grieve, much like a death. You go thru the same phases such as shock, anger, depression, bargaining and acceptance. It takes quite awhile to get thru the grief -- give yourself some time. And try to keep as busy as possible -- develop a new hobby, or make new friends. I know you don't feel like doing much right now, but force yourself. You'll be glad you did.

I wish you the very best. Please take good care of yourself. God bless. Hugs, Lee
Thanks for this!
