Want to go home

Will try not to ramble on but I’m in a bad state right now. We moved house last year to a new area (I thought that’s what I needed a fresh start) realising now it was the worst mistake ever. I’m on my own all the time. I have no friends and no one to talk to it’s all I want just someone to ring and see how they’re doing tell them some drama maybe have a cuppa every now and again. I applied for college but don’t see any point in it now we can’t afford the childcare or for travel there and back. We have pretty much nothing at the moment and I’m in a crazy amount of debt that I can’t pay off because we have nothing. I can only work certain hours due to child care and there’s no jobs within those hours at the moment. My partner works his backside off but is so tired that he hasn’t got time for me to sit and cry to him. I feel like I’m just so alone and really want to go back home. If it wasn’t for the kids being in school I would be packing up now. I don’t know what to do.

I didn't want to read and run. I'm sorry you're having a tough time at the moment, I'm not very good with change and I know that move of house and area can take a while to adjust to so be kind to yourself, it won't have been a massive mistake, it's just taking a bit of time to feel like home.
On the plus side too it's nearly the end of January and we are on the countdown to spring and lighter evenings and warmer weather when there will be lots more opportunity to take the kids to the park and meet fellow parents and potential new friends.
Sorry I've probably not been hugely helpful but I really hope you feel more positive about things soon and in time your new home will really feel like home.

If you're trying Peanut there's also Bumble BFF. If you have Facebook, hopefully there are some groups for women in the area to meet up? Hope you feel okay soon!
