Rant sorry it's long

I'm hurting bad tonight I think PPD may be hitting Me. My BD sucks my financial situation is trash bc me baby and the sitter all got sick different weeks and it kept me outta work and they fired me for it. My LO wants to fight sleep EVERY NIGHT FOR HOURS he bites me hits me pulls my hair and it's so hard not to react and smack back bc I don't wanna be like my parents were I haven't gotten more than 4 hrs of sleep a nightbfor WEEKS. EVERYONE in my house has had an attitude today due to the stress we are all in and my child made it worse by screaming roommate hates the music my child will fall asleep to but I can't turn my TV down anymore than I have bc then you can't hear it so I'm having to put him to sleep in silence which he's again fighting and biting I want to pull my hair out I've already had a couple of break downs I don't know what to do. I love My baby but I'm super stressed and need help but I don't have any....

Show your support

How old is baby?

I'm sorry you are dealing with so much at once. Can you file for unemployment? Does your BD pay child support? Financial strain can really make stress worse. Try and tell yourself this is a season in life...not forever. Even the sleep issues I promise won't last forever! I find when a lot of things hit me all at once I'm being forced to look inward and make certain changes that need to happen that maybe I would be ignoring otherwise. If you need a place to go to connect with other women going through similar stresses or anxiety...please check out my group. You don't have to feel so alone. I hate when I see stressed out posts on here where no one has responded for several hours...that can make you feel even more unheard or cared about. So just know you are not alone and doing the best you can keep trying you got this mama! shorturl.at/1FLEw

Thank you so much unemployment keeps denying me my BD IS around but he feels the baby doesn't need him until he's a little older so primarily am the one who takes care of him plus our relationship is strained rn he have DAYS we don't talk all but 2 words to each other don't get me wrong he does try to help me in other ways but he also stresses Me out since he doesn't really help with baby ( no judgement) I smoke a little 🌳 to help with my depression and anxiety but if I'm gone for more than 30 minutes then it becomes a problem or if I smoke more than once a day or if baby is awake he gets super pissy like I'm just smoking to smoke when I rather smoke than take pills. I've been struggling with my office out here with getting any kind of help bc ill get a job get sick and then lose said job (been the trend for about 5 m now) and they want all this info I'm unable to provide and when I try to explain my situation they will tell me there's nothing they can do

You can’t get unemployment if you left voluntarily. Is that the case ?

@Nai I was fired from 2 of them due to being sick I had to leave a couple of them but I wasn't trying to file unemployment for those just the one that fired me

Honestly you need to do things for yourself so is it possible to become a bit more aggressive and let him know you need time yourself so shut up and chill out. Sometimes we have to get a lil out of character to get ppl to hear us and understand.
