Anyone else think this is a shit time of year actually worse than January? AIBU?
Single parent, zero help, 13 year old DD who is fab. New full time job. Totally overwhelmed by it and monotony of home life. No pay for 6 weeks so flat broke.
DD has tests at half term at school so revision being piled on already. Cold is drawing in. I really can't see anything to look forward to at the moment. Im not one for "snuggles and hot chocolate " on the sofa - too lonely as a single parent. Plus i like the summer.
Everything feels like a slog, and with cost of living crisis, winter feels like doom.
Anyone else? What is there to look forward to if anything? May/ summer seems a long way off

Im waiting to find out if my UC top up will be cut, in which case I will be no better off. 15 hours commute a week on top of full time professional work is hard going. I wish my rent was cheaper. At £1400 a month for a place thats falling apart its a hard pill to swallow
