Since I left my now ex husband in August I have had one terrible trial after another. I had been a stay at home Mom and only work part time jobs because of back problems. My financial issues are causing me so much stress. I would like to know how others cope with it. Things happened (too long of a story to explain) and my bank acct is overdrawn that I can't even use it now.

After living here about a month I started having vaginal irritation because of menopause. Estrace cream has helped that but it started me on several months of back to back Urinary infections.

I don't want to make any rash and sudden moves at this point in my life but I have a friend up north. His state has health insurance very cheap that I would qualify for. I have been thinking about the best thing for me is to end up selling my car and moving up to a city about 30 min. from him. We are just good friends, that is all. I think public transportation might be a better option for me then worrying about the care and maintenance of a car. I am going to start going to a local free counselor to talk about all of this. I know my family will think I am crazy if I do move that far away. But I do have some other health issues and his state has better social services also than where I am living now. These are all such difficult decisions to make. Thank you if you have read all of this.
