My life sucks Im 45 and dont have a future so depressed

I hate this world I am so angry at every person and I hate myself so much. I got married out of highschool, had a family, raised two kids, the entire 21 years I was alone married but alone emotionally and parenting definately all alone, I never worked, he took care of the money. I wasnt allowed to know anything. My grandmother handed me a few dollars every week, month. I was just used to it I had no clue how the world worked all I did was maintain a house and raise kids and baby sit for relatives but i had nothing of my own. My husband refused to sleep in our bed, he always slept in his office on the couch. He wouldnt eat at the dinner table he would deliberatley avoid it. He wouldnt attend the kids after school sports or plays or band performances, every now and then he would come to one but I really did it all. Once the kids became close to 18 I panicked I got a job at walmart and then I left my husband and I soon found out I couldnt survive on my own so I tried to kill myself. My son had gotten his girlfriend pregnant she was getting ready to have my first grandson and I really couldnt stand this girl, my instincts told me she was using my son. My daughter was only 16 but she decided to stay with her dad so she could finish at her school she didnt want to move to another school district. I understood that so I didnt force it but it definately totally changed our relationship and to this day we are not close like I always thought we would be. My son got into drugs and at 21 he shot and killed someone and is in prison for 70 years and I have a crappy car and no money and its really hard for me to get to go see him. I am so angry at him, but I miss him its a roller coaster of emotions. The humiliation and Embarrasement then the parent guilt thinking its your fault when I know I was a great mom and he did this to his self it just kills me. I dont get to see either of my grandsons who are now 7 and 4 because their mother totally turned her back on my son after his arrest and conviction. Ive tried to see them but she wont answer her phone or invite me to their school functions or birthday parties. My daughter is now 23 and she has a 3 year old little girl, my grandaughter. I love that little girl to death I do get to see her but not as much as I would like. In the past seven years since i left that first marriage, Ive had many jobs, bought my own house then almost lost it because i got fired from the best job i ended up as an office mgr. I was almost raped by my boss and I reported it so I was retaliated against, then my second x husband beat me up soon after we married, I am abused by him physically and verbally every day we have been in and out of the courts and I am ashamed to say I am stuck and dont know how to live by myself. I became ill after the sexual harrasment and losing my job and I am now on SSDI but its very little since ive only worked 7 years my entire adult life. I cant afford this house all my check goes to keep a roof over my head. I cant afford anything to buy my grandaughter a present, food, clothes a car etc... I am so angry all the time and I cant afford the maintenance of this house. But since its in my name only my x who lives with me wont help me do anything to the house, my daughter doesnt come around much, my son doesnt write. I cant help my children, grandchildren or myself, I feel like such a loser. I turned to vocational rehab to try and get a work from home job, my doctor recommends it since I have vertigo attacks daily, panic attacks, anxiety, severe depression, and its been 4 months and they still havent found me a job. Everyday I wake up just miserable, the only light I have is my three chihuahuas my dogs they are my children now and I love them with all my heart but I can not quit worrying circumstances are going to end up making lose them. Today the mail lady knocked down my mail post and ruined my mail box and post, and I have no money to fix it and I know this homeowners association is going to be angry with me over it. My care is 13 years old but paid for but it looks like crap, I just know im a loser ill never have anything and its only going to get worse and worse and I dont have any skills I have no clue how to support myself, Ive lost all my family members that used to always help me. my life has drastically changed thes past years and I am so angry at my first x husband for not making that marriage work out. Im so tired of feeling alone in every day life everything i do or have to deal with im so very lonely, my dogs are my only comfort the only love i get but im so scared im going to lose them, I live in fear all the time of everything. I tried to kill myself in 2004 I try not to think of it cause i can not hurt my daughter again. I am just so overwhelmed by the world and life and problems and money I have no hope for a descent future for my old age and my second x who lives with me is into porn and I hate it so much it makes me feel so inadequate and discusted! I feel old and ugly because he does that to me and he is always saying shut up calling me nasty names, yes he helps me out with money sometimes but i dont deserve what i get and I want love so bad it hurts. I am one miserable woman and I have no hope.

I want love too. Im not a kid. Im a grown woman. I cling to "nice guys" cuz im so afraid of abuse. I want true love. All I can do is dream. You life sounds heartbreaking. Especially your son's situation of being in jail for eternity. Whats the solution? It's hard to say. maybe try to sell the house and just have a little apartment, just for you, even just a little studio apt. Give yourself some peace if possible. Try to get away from the bad guy. Lonliness is bad, but being lonley with another person in the house is absolute hell. I feel you,

loser!


By anonymous at 10,Oct,11 11:27

Ouch.


By anonymous at 10,Oct,11 16:13

lady,, i wish god helps you with this situation, i think when someone loses intrest in material world, he should seek help and inspiration in the spiritual world, read and discover and make urself better, money is not the issue
By anonymous at 10,Oct,11 16:36

Good advice!


By anonymous at 10,Oct,11 20:25

Sounds like you blame your x husband a lot. Remeber relationships have two people. You wont be any happyer blaming everyone else for your problems. If you cant afford something you shoudnt have it. It sounds harsh but its the truth. I would suggest you and your dogs move to an appartment thats pet friendly and you try and get a job. Depression is a very hard thing to shake off youll need profetional help for that.


By anonymous at 11,Oct,11 05:48

Hi!
I read your story and I am so sorry your life is so hard... I also had a failed mariage so I know a little bit of how that feels.
I also know that it is hard for you to receave advices from people you don't know and harder for them, who are not going through what you go through, to understand. But you need to have an open mind and try to do just about anything to get out of this situation. You have nothing to lose now so why not try?
Going through the dessapointment of my first failed marriage I felt lost and alone and I wanted to die, just like you. I even tried that a few times. Than I understood that there are aother people, just like me who managed to fight and somehow become stronger.
There are many things to say and I feel like this is not the place. I'll give you my e-mail adress and if you want to talk to me more about that, than I'll be here whenever you need.
You are a young woman. You can fight. You can change yourself into a stronger woman and you can change your life in a better one. Don't give up and write to me if you feel like.
This is my e-mail adress: snowdrops_time@yahoo.com

By anonymous at 11,Oct,11 20:48

Things will get better. everyone reading this will pray for you


By anonymous at 11,Oct,11 22:10

do you have money for dog food and vet bills?


By anonymous at 12,Oct,11 18:47

no words, honey... no words.
P.S. don't try to kill yourself anymore... it isn't worth going to hell over!
By anonymous at 16,Nov,11 12:17

she wont go to hell, she will just be dead, like we all will one day.
By anonymous at 17,Jan,12 22:03

She will go to heaven when ready. You on the other hand...


By anonymous at 12,Oct,11 23:25

Hey my life was pretty similar to yours once. I had two kids by the time I was 23 and a husband who was pretty much the same. After I started working, I pushed to improve my life. My ex refused to let me get back to school, so I left him.

don't let anyone stop you from having the life you want. I left my ex and started taking college classes part time. it's taken a long time but it's helped me tremendously to feel better about myself and learn something that will help me financially. Just get out there and don't let anyone stop you! Find what you dream and go for it!


By anonymous at 13,Oct,11 03:20

Turn yourself to god and angels, everything will be fine.


By anon at 13,Oct,11 09:13

Drop the things that hold you down and ask yourself what you really want from your life. It's never too late, stay strong. It's easier said than done but all I can do now after reading what you've been through is that I'm happy for you not contemplating suicide and thank you and thank god so much for that because I'm getting sick of seeing everyone wanting to die on this site. You're different, keep holding on.

I am 53 and also divorced 3 times! I know how you feel. All 3 were abusive with the last one being the worse. He was a real peace of work as he said he was "Christian". I have pretty much given up on men and decided I will just have to live my life alone forever. I sucks about your son. I feel bad for you. I do understand.


By anonymous at 03,Nov,11 10:14

Wow that is a shame,no one deserves to be treated so poorly.
Being raised by all women,i know better.
X # 2 needs an "attitude adjustment" he needs his head split open.

Keep your head up.


By anonymous at 24,Dec,11 20:49

i am also a dead beat, but at just 28.

but i would say that you got embroiled in this feminist thing tho, trying to get work for yourself. once the kids were 18 couldnt you just stay with husband no1 without working? why trip him out by working? i can say from a dudes perspective that he might think that at work you will either meet guys who are better than he or even start cheating on him. sounds like he wanted to control you a lot. you should have just stuck with that because as we both know the world is too tough for people like us to stand on their own feet. we are hopeless dependants, faking


By anonymous at 10,Jan,12 05:58

get a smaller apartmaent and get on with life with your beloved dogs, ditch the porn loving arsehole. find a job that you enjoy, do some free traiming or inexpensive training to change your career path, im 27 with 2 kids and a miserable part time job asshole husband but i know nothig lasts forever, even misery! so keep your head up and make small changes everyday to move yourself to happier state of mind( and accomodation)


By anonymous at 14,Jan,12 11:23

i dont know what to say lady..... But i dnt believe in god. Life is unfair but the thing is ur existance to be satisfactory to urself or sacrifice for others to make urself happy to make them happy. So whatever u deserved b4 or not leave it and take ur life in a new journey of helping others. Dont live alone go some where to help ppls or children for there better future so that atleast some children can live a better life. I m sure u wil find some one who could understand u. And take the driving seat of ur life dont let ur hasband or his money to drive ur life.

A lot of comments suggest to volunteer. It is a good idea. Is there a community centre near you that you can walk to?
