depression

Almost 29 weeks, and feel like Im falling into depression, I've been off work since March, my son & I lost our house since I wasn't working & couldn't afford rent. We're staying at a shelter to help us get into affordable housing, my dad found out and has been doing nothing but say horrible things that I can't support my kids, and those poor kids don't even have a house of their own. Im sorry but I'm trying, I'm going back to work after I have the baby, but with him saying so much horrible things do you think he offered to help? No, & I wouldn't accept it anyways he would just hold it over my head. It seems like him & his new wife have nothing better to do. All I wanna do is sleep, cry, not do anything it's so hard to put on a brave face for my son every day :(

At the shelter we have our own little room kind of like an apt the size of a bedroom, we are only allowed to stay 3 months so in the time being here they do help find housing and my dad hasn't offered to help at all, I haven't heard from him since I told him I was pregnant & even then all he said was thanks for tellin me. My brother told me all the stuff my dad is saying.

Oh hun, doesn't life just su ck sometimes?? I'm sorry you have to deal with this, I wish I could be of more help but I've never been in that situation. Is the shelter helping you get assistance and housing? Maybe going with your dad wouldn't be so bad, sure they would rag on you, but it's better to have a roof over your head, right? I hope things look up for you soon.
