  There was a time when I was living in Europe and in a pretty bad situation. A husband who was in trouble ( again ) , a young daughter, no family, no friends.

  I realised society has things in place to help people just like me, people who are alone. So I used the social services that were set up to help me and they helped me as much as they could.

  Long term, that understanding of how our society works really helped me a lot.

  So use every single free service you can use. Government, charity, church. It’s meant for you.

  So many hugs, you are not alone.

  I understand how you feel sadly :(

  Just a fuck you and fuck you day after day with no signs of it ending and with no help available.

  We’re a group of people who are friendly who might be able to help if there was something specific?

  You’re not alone in this, I often find myself in this situation too. It’s shitty but I can usually find an alternate way to do things if I think it through. It may not but the fastest or cheapest but it is what it is.

  I think with more people being single, people having fewer or no children, less community groups, this situation is becoming more common and hopefully things can adjust so that people can be more independent when they need to.
