Dear Lady. Ann:
I am a single mother to a beautiful 4yr old princess. Her father and I parted ways when she was 2. It has been a journey and a half and still continues. I had to move back home and try to pick up the pieces for her. At 19 I was diagnosed with depression, went on antidepressants for a year, stopped taking them because I felt like a zombie. I did research and found coping mechanisms. Suffered a few panic attacks but survived. Fast forward to 2018 the kob I had took its toll on me mentally and therefore my physical health too. Suffered anxiety and the depression leaped back, collapsed a few times at work. During all of this, got involved with a man who’s committed to someone else, because he accepted and appreciated me as I was, no judgement. I fell for him hard, loved him with almost every fibre in me. Long story short I ended things with him recently, resigned from my job as it was all getting a bit too much. I am now starting a healthy and wellness online coaching business, however I still need a job as I am the primary breadwinner at home. I ask for prayers to find a good permanent job again, healing for my heart and strength to keep going, so I can carry myself, my daughter and my family. I believe that everything happens for a reason and therefore I believe God sees and knows.
