I'm so lost...

[SHARAN1]

Hi, was wondering if anyone could help/advice me.I'm a single parent,with one child.I have no family or friends around me.
I live in the Midlands,they are all in London. My daughter would like to go and see her grandparents,she use to see them often and stay every hoilday with them.
We haven't see them since Feb half term but the only way to get to London is by train.I'm not sure if their are any restriction as to how far we can travel ,Iam really scared of being stop or getting a fine.
I'm also struggle with lockdown myself,I suffer from depression & anxiety & this moment in time I feel all alone.
If I'm really having a bad time,I can be in bed a few days which is unfare to my daughter.I have no family or friends around me.lock down has really effected me mentally.
Ive also gone through a divorce and moved out of family home with nothing,so starting life over again.
I really do feel like I have let my daughter down.She almost 16 but has been through a lot,we both have.
Any advice would be appreciated 🙏

Yes you as a single adult household can travel and stay with your parents, so go book a train and recharge.

Lockdown is truly awful if you're on your own. Sounds like you've also been through a really tough period on top of it all. I didn't want to read and leave. Sounds like you really need your family around you. Do they know how your feeling? It also sounds like your daughter is the most precious person in your life right now. My advice is to cherish her, no matter what. Make sure she knows how wonderful you think she is, even when you feel so low you can't get put of bed. Let her know it's temporary and that you'll bounce back. You will. I really hope things start to look up for you.

I'm sorry to hear that you have been struggling - it sounds like a visit to your parents would be an excellent idea. . The new social bubble allows you as a single person to visit and there is no restriction of on distance. I would definitely book a train. My student son has had to return to his university city this week by train & he said the train was really quiet. It may be worth asking at the station which are the quietest times to travel.

Could you ring a mental health or general Covid support line and have a chat with someone, OP?

Get a couple of masks and go and visit your family.

I also think you should go and see your family.

I am in a very similar situation, except my parents are not even in the U.K. it’s pretty tough.
