I can’t get a fucking job because I would be working just to pay for childcare and we’re going deeper into poverty

I'm going to lose my mind. I know I'm going to get a lot of hate because I've put my son and I in this situation by having him, but I was 18 at the time and in love. I was pressured by my boyfriend's mother to keep my baby because of her conservative beliefs. I know now that this was a load of fucking shit but I was still a child myself and terrified so I had listened to the woman telling me I would be disowned from her family and sent to hell if I got an abortion.

On February 25th, my asshole-of-a-CEO fired me for bullshit reasons, and asked me to stay on through the end of March to train my replacement and finish monthly billing. A lot of you told me to quit/walk away, or do nothing at all. I chose the latter, just about. I sent my replacement a bunch of emails and screenshots with instructions on how to do my most important job functions, and was as kind to her as I could be (it ain’t her fault).

I have really struggled over the last few years due to my brother’s suicide. I thought I would just lay down and die, and not be able to find…
