I want the life other people have.

I’m really unhappy in my life. I look at social media and out and about at people who have kids and a partner and a dog and I want that life.

I carry so much past trauma from abusive marriage and illnesses thanks to that I’ll have forever. I’m so tired of it all. Struggling as a single parent with no father and they are struggling and playing up, I think they blame me and have started to tell me they hate me and want another mum. I’m struggling to keep working and juggling with childcare, I’m tired all the time from my illness. I’m tired of just struggling all the time and cry at night.

Is this my life now, I want what other have, I feel so different.

Hello OP, we are really sorry to hear you are feeling this way - it sounds like things are really tough for you at the moment. Flowers

We hope you don't mind, but when these threads are flagged up to us we usually add a link to our Mental Health resources. You can also go to the Samaritans website, or email them on [email protected] and may find our Domestic Violence information helpful.

Support from other Mumsnetters is great and we really hope you will be able to take some comfort from your fellow posters, but as other MNers will tell you, it's really a good idea to seek RL help and support as well.

We also like to remind everyone that, although we're awed daily by the astonishing support our members give each other through life's trickier twists and turns, we'd always caution anyone never to give more of themselves to another poster, emotionally or financially, than they can afford to spare.

Thanks everyone and take care, OP - please do give us a shout if we can help further.
