Vanlife is over, depression is back full force

Holding my son, watching him sleep, I love him so much and I will continue to give all I can to make sure he is healthy and feeling silly.

Maybe someday someone will love me. Hopefully before I’m drained and dead. But not likely. I’m so tired of trying to meet people, tired of how it all goes wrong because I’m too kind, then I get drug through the dirt for putting my energy into my kid first. Nobody gives, nobody cares, they just want, they just take and they don’t care what it costs you.

I miss the van, I miss California and the beauty of enjoying life in the present. Coming back here just meant the same old pain. It’s back and it’s worse now. Starting to feel apathetic and exhausted to get through the day. But nobody is gonna help, nobody cares about us. They just come into your life to use you. Leave you broken in a bad place. Then people who also don’t really care tell you the same old cliché bullshit that never comes true. Nobody better comes along when you least expect it.

I’m tired. I’m gonna fkn die young because I had to do everything alone and I wore myself to nothing. I hate my son has to see it all go down. I wish he could see his mommy being loved and respected, but life is shit unless you’re pretty and likable.

You are both pretty and likeable

You are very pretty and likeable. I want to tell you to not let them beat you down, but I do feel some of this is your own voice, and it's okay to say you are fucking depressed. I say do whatever you can do to beat that apathetic and exhausted feeling, resigning to it, will only beat you down more.

I don't always love the answer, as I don't feel upto it sometimes, but sometimes raging against the dying of the light is the spirit we must embrace in ourselves.

@RebelFox You have me cheering you on. I find you have a unique voice on here. Those who are unique often find themselves alone, just be yourself, and I really hope you find someone who can help you in your life and all you want and desire. It can seem so distant, far away, and I guess in spirit it means keeping yourself alive, open, to wherever, with whoever, you may find who gives you life. I'm my own way, I'm sending you hugs and prayers.

You have to keep going. You have a son. Fuck all those that don’t value you. It’s tough but you can do this. Tomorrow is a new day. Sending love x

so where did you end up?
any chance you might go back somewhere and start over?
RebelFox · 36-40, F
@Pretzel back east. Yeah I’ll get out of here eventually, might be a year, my son asked to stay a year 😞
If you let them use you that is exactly what they will do.

@SmileOnYourBrother I trust people as I want to be trusted. I give and love as I thought that was how it worked? Right? You love someone, they love you back? How do I stop them from lying and playing with my heart?

Any local live bands playing where you are or music festivals coming up ?

Great social experiences you and your lil lad can enjoy together or what about surfing 🏄‍♀️

Keep going x

@SW-User I can find fun, but doing everything alone is hard. I can’t take him surfing because if I wipeout and get hurt he’s gonna be sitting on the beach alone. It’s always alone.

@RebelFox One year isn't going to kill you I guess and I think you enjoy being on the road. It's just that there's a yin and yang ☯️ to everything and you have to listen to what you want and what's best for your family.

@Lostpoet It won’t kill me but it’s a waste of life. I’ll do it for my boy. It’s just that everything is alone 😆 I’m exhausted.
