hi there kjesse :wave:

sounds like things are really tough at the moment and thngs that you might be able to deal with one by one have all happened together and are overwhelming.
not sure where you're based - the dollars sign suggests you're not in the uk?
what kind of support can you get where you are? do any friends or professionals know how difficult you are finding life at the moment?

people at the site are really supportive and pretty non-judgemental so i hope you get something that you need here. theres also loads of info here that might help

do post to let us know how you are getting on

im from australia
the only people that really know about my depression are 2 friends but they live in different states
its just getting hard to handle and i cant bother my mum about it because she works all day and tired at night and just does everything she can just to pay the bills and me not having a job isnt helping that and yeah...

Hey Kjesse

There are so many organisations out there that can help and support you. Your doctor can help find some kind of support for you, and it would be confidential, so no one else would have to know.

Good luck
