Depression since becoming a single dad
Lost my job 6 months ago and have been the primary parent since then. The stress of being solely responsible for everything plus financial anxiety has me in a really dark place. Some mornings I don't want to get out of bed but the kids need breakfast so I do it. I feel like I'm just going through motions. Haven't told anyone how bad it is because I don't want people thinking I can't handle being a dad. But I'm struggling.
Hang in there man. Losing a job on top of everything else is brutal. Have you looked into any local support groups or talked to someone professionally? The single parent weight is real.
