I really don't know what to do.
I have a young baby and struggling awfully with PND (on waiting list for help) I get overwhelmed with the baby very easily and need to leave the room to focus on another chore or similar to reset. Without this I get suicidal, make plans etc.
Partner has quit his job and is looking for a remote one instead (very possible in his field) but his children from a previous relationship live a few hours away so to even see them for a few hours, it's a whole day away. Baby doesn't travel well at all so he can't take him. His ex refuses to help with bringing the children to him but is sending abusive messages about the decrease in visitation.
The only family I have is more of a company thing rather than them helping, it's not enough.
I didn't expect to be this way and feel awful making it so difficult, I want him to see his kids. I don't know what to do.

You look after yourself and your baby. Its up to your DP to sort visitation for his DC.

Why has he quit his job? Is he employed currently and just looking for a new one or is he unemployed? If he is not earning, how does he support his DC?

Ignore the ex, not your circus. I hope you get the help you need soon.
