Sorry

Good afternoon.  I know that I haven't been posting or responding much lately but,  I have read every email and messages.  I am just in a bad head space right now. The 1st anniversary of my husband's death is the 23rd of this month. My family is at war and falling apart and I have no clue how to pay any of my bills this month. I just want to stop trying but,  I  know I can't because of my kids. I just feel like no one can understand the place that I am in right now. I'm the sole provider of an adult disabled son and I am barely able to take care of myself right now. I ask my daughter and she will help when it is convenient for her or, I have to go to her.  I just feel that's really not fair.  I understand that she has her own life but, I really don't ask her to do much.  Am I wrong for feeling that way?

  Kim are you able to collect Social Security for your son and yourself as  widow?  Did your husband have any type of retirement plan with his job?  With all of the assistance the federal government gives to the people coming over the border, I do not understand how a citizen of the United States cannot and does not get the help that THEY need??????  Please try to find an advocate in your town to assist you with this.

Yes. I have a psychiatrist and therapist because I have a physically induced anxiety disorder and have therapy every 2 weeks. She is the best person and I absolutely love her but,  I sometimes cannot control the way my mind and feelings work.
