My mum was 16, dad nearly 19, they didn't work out for various reasons, they blame eachother. I was exposed to horrendous abuse.. I met with my biological dad.. was kicked out of my childhood home.. I'm now with a much older man, two gorgeous babies, a very sad relationship for me... have you been me? What do you do? No family support. I just need advice based on love and experiences.

How did you feel?

I really need women rallying, my mental health is low.

Hi OP, firstly sending a virtual hug. Whilst not in your exact position I did have a very challenging childhood regarding my parent situation and the result was I grew up often very alone. This resulted in very low self esteem and I leaned on others that perhaps weren't right for me. With therapy, support and trying to summon a lot of strength I'm in a much better place now. How is your relationship? You say it's a very sad relationship, but do you feel safe? Is everything ok at home? Please reach out to your GP, there is support out there. It may not feel like it right now but there is light at the end of the tunnel. Focus on learning to love and care for yourself. Mental health is complex but it's really important to believe in yourself - know that you're worthy of better things. Please reach out to your GP who will be able to offer the right help to get you back on track.
