Thank you for your words and the prayer at the bottom of your post. I know I am not alone, though I feel it sometimes. I feel like I'm failing my daughter as some of the things I had gotten for us, are now being taken away. My daughter sees all of this and she's old enough to understand what's going on. I feel embarrassed sometimes of this happening in front of her.
I am so sorry to hear about your battle. I'm in a similar one of my own. I understand perfectly about how living with depression. I was diagnosed with it three weeks ago. Most likely had it for a lot longer than that.
I wish I could offer assistance as I too am facing a bad situation. I keep hearing that we need to have faith. Your breakthrough, as mine, is on the way. You've probably heard all of this before, and I'm sorry if I sound repetitive.
Let's keep checking in on each other as I'm sure we have some things in common.

Hi.
I'm a single mom of one beautiful and energetic daughter. I am faced with the biggest challenge of my life that has gotten me living in fear to do anything.
I lost my job back in December 2009. Right before Christmas. Currently, I'm still unemployed and finding it difficult to make ends meet. My daughter starts back to school next week and though she has some things to wear, she needs a little more.
As stated, I live my life in fear now. I am facing foreclosure on my house and reposession of my car. Can't afford to do basic things as I'm trying to pay everyone as best as I can. I'm scared and feel so alone. I'm scared to answer the phone, or open the door. I hide in my house as that's where I feel most comfortable, for now.
