Feeling sorry for myself

I feel so sad and alone. That's all. I wish I had a partner but I dont. Life is so hard alone with kids and a bit sad. That's all. Pity party over. Perhaps this is PMT but it's awful. I feel like I wish I was dead. It's so silly. I have noone to talk to.

Children aren’t little for long and as they become more independent you will have more free time.

Or is there a possibility it’s more than feeling a bit fed up and down and you may have depression?

Me too.
All day I am so busy with work and the DC but when they go to bed or are with their father I am just on my own.
No conversation no love just me and Netflix Grin
Tbf I dont do anything about being alone. OD is something I tried and failed at.

I am now looking to change careers and I have just started to volunteer locally so putting my energies and time elsewhere.

Have your pity party OP its ok every now and then Flowers

Thanks Soola and GleefulGlitch.
I'm watching some mindless TV to distract from overthinking.
It's hard to parent and I am so worried. I don't know. It feels like there isn't a place for me in the world.
I do have antidepressants and they help. I don't want to moan. Sorry. I feel like an idiot.

It’s ok to moan!

Things will get easier, they really will.
This is a stage in your life. We all feel alone at times, that’s normal.
Try to find joy in the small things, and if possible get something to look forward to.
