Does anyone just feel completely alone?

i feel so alone and shockingly I'm married with 6 kids one that's a niece of my husbands... I have no one to talk to and I'm so tired of crying and feeling this way! Can't talk to my mom because half the time she she mad at me and I'm sure thinks I'm a failure can't talk to my husband just tried and I caught him rolling his eyes. Sad thing is I have a fear my that my daughter is going to grow up she's is 3 weeks shy of 13 and think this is ok! I don't want her to be sad all the time I don't want her to just take the  apologies every single time and think things are going to change! I'm just so tired of not caring about myself anymore and being sad. I have a 3 month old I should be able to enjoy my last kid. It's just hopeless!

I was married with 2 kids and felt completely alone sadly now I am divorced and still feel the same you need to find a hobby to occupy your time as for kids get her involved in something and being the soccer mom or band mom might bring so excited happiness to you as well

She does competitive Gymnastics that she probably stays in to be away from home! I have a 10 year old son with aspergers and adhd who has voiced he thinks his dad hates him idk what to do! I'm a military spouse if I get divorced that means moving back to Arkansas dealing with judgement from family and being alone because I have 5 kids who's gonna want to be with someone that has 5 kids plus I would be starting from square one! I'm 28 I shouldn't feel this way!

I was just talking to someone about this very thing. I am married with a son and have never felt so alone in my life. No one wants to hear or talk about my problems. I just get up go to work and pay the bills. I have zero support in my life. As for you and your gaughter do things with her. Maybe you could find a hobby with her you both would enjoy. There's sadly no easy way when one partner doesn't support you or your family emotionally. I wish you the best of luck.

Thank you like I just told him divorce would be easy on him we are a military family so he would stay in California and I would go back to Arkansas to nothing... Got married at 17 and never went to college just tried to be the best mom and wife I could be so getting a good paying job is slim it just seems like my life is one big failure,

Very sorry for your situation. Consider marriage counseling to try to save your marriage if you think that's possible. You both have to be willing to invest all out for it to work. Keep in touch.

Alexis , for some reason , I am unable to see members' profiles but your post says a lot about you . You sound like a sweetheart that really just needs compassionate , sounding boards . Loneliness and depression come in all forms . If you can access my profile you will see what my issues are . There are no reasons why 2 ppl must be just alike to make a bond . I would love to help , even if it is just to be your shoulder . Perhaps helping you by just being there would help me , also . I am sending you a friend request hoping you will agree . Please don't worry if you don't think we are a good fit . I really need to make lasting , meaningful friendships and don't just want to be a name on your list . Try to have a decent day . I am very spiritual and really don't mind if my friends are or not , so if you don't mind I will pray for your serenity and peace of mind !!
