I have a five month old and when my relationship broke down I moved back towards my family for support. I’ve had some support but not much and I desperately miss my old life back where I had a busier life and closer to my work (I’m still on maternity).
I have had to battle with ex to give me some maintenance, he dragged out cms by a paternity test and I’ve felt totally and utterly battered from all sides before and after pregnancy. I am absolutely broken. I feel stuck here now with a huge mortgage that I only moved to a year ago. I used to be successful, strong, hopeful. I just can’t cope anymore. Midwives know how I feel and I have mental health support but honestly I can’t stand my life and don’t know how much longer I can cope.
