This is my first post. I am in my early 30s, an only child, and am a single mom to a 3 year old girl. My mother had a lot of issues and was diagnosed with depression, but she was super manipulative and cut lots of people out of her life, including myself and never met my daughter. She passed away a few years ago. My father went along with whatever she said and also cut me out of his life, never meeting his granddaughter, until after she passed away. He is now remarried and chooses not to be much of a part of my or my daughters life.

I recently got out of a relationship with a man that hadnt been in a serious relationship and he would be very supportive, but when I would disagree with him, he'd storm off, say the most hateful things to me, and/or simply pack all his stuff and go. This went on for 2 years and I am choosing to not give him another chance although he is begging for an opportunity.

I have a lot of difficulties in my daily life. I cannot hold a job and I've been told that "it's not what I say, but how I say it", "I dont have the correct tone"... I think I am right too often and have trouble with criticism. I most definitely have trouble with authority. And I believe that I have a sense of entitlement. I, too often, look at the negatives in my life and obsess over fixing them. And here my daughter is to witness my complete and total meltdowns that have been happening far too often, daily at this point.

I need time to think and be alone. I dont have too many friends... and I dont want to bother anyone with my problems... no one seems to call anymore.

My daughters father was in her life, but we are in litigation and he recently had a baby with a woman he is living with so he just up and left his job, which means no more support, and isnt answering anyones calls. He is supposed to take her every weekend but hasnt seen her in over a month now and I work weekends. And I have no one to help me watch her this weekend so I am totally losing my mind because I am stuck.

Someone please help me.

attentionThis is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.
