I am so depressed I dont know what to do!!!!!! I am a single mom of 2 special needs kids and they are the only reason I dont kill myself!!! I am fighting to pull my head above the water but dealing with all I am at the moment is really getting the best of me. I am in a wheelchair due to a surgery that didnt go right and I am facing more surgery on my ankle probally.:( I am also majorly missing my dad that passed away to cancer almost 6 yrs ago (will be 6yrs next friday) plus it seems everytime I reach out to someone I end up getting shit on and hurt even more. I so miss a man in my life just for companionship and someone to love and care about me that does it cause they want to and not have to cause they are family. But that to seems that everytime I think I have found someone they end up running like the wind once they meet the kids cause of their health concerns and issues that and so tired of the "wow your fat" (geeeeze people like I didnt know I am a big person) why would I want to date you:(

I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
You should talk out your thoughts. Your children need you and it sounds like they are the true love of your life. Please talk out what is troubling you so that we can help you through the rough times.
I have a daughter and we have dealt with learning issues and that has been tough enough...a lot of stress and tears...and I am single too...
I decided, once she got to be older than three, that I wouldn't date...I was scared of exactly what happened to you...creepy guys trying to get access to my pretty daughter...and anyway, I figured she needs me one hundred percent until she's grown...I do have family around, and it is not the same as having someone who nurtures you and is invested in the circumstances of your life in the same way a husband would...but I just concentrate on raising my daughter and taking all the joy I can in that..On the other hand, my uncle married a woman with a nearly grown daughter and a teenage daughter with extreme special needs...he has become the special needs child's full time caretaker while mom works...So there are good guys out there too...
Hang in there...I wish you comfort for your grief and longing for your daddy too...keep sharing here...It helps keep you feeling connected to folks who understand...knowing you aren't alone buoys you up a bit for sure...
