I am a mother of 3 at the age of 23. I have absolutely nothing to my name, we live with my mother, I don’t even have a drivers license! Sometimes I feel like they would be better off without me, the intense urge to cut myself haunts me everyday. It has been a little over a month but I have been hurting myself for 12 years now. The father of my children, whom I am still with, abuses me. We have been together for almost 6 years and he has been abusive for almost all of it. Why do I feel so unmotivated when in reality I should have so much motivation? I need so much help, but nobody seems to care. I am a slave in my own house, I barely get any help with the kids or the housework. I know I do not work, but neither does my mom or my teenage sisters and they are very capable of helping, but they take advantage of me. I’m just so sick of this life that I am feeling isn’t going anywhere. I love my children dearly and honestly if I did not have them I would have been dead a long time ago!
