Fingers crossed. Life has a way of giving us what we need wrapped in a package that sometimes we don’t recognize. The nice thing about groups (there are many different types - check out here: Resources for our recovery) is they have all the parts of counseling - people talking, sharing, walking a path, going over steps, structure - but they’re free. So when moneys tight, groups are a path that works to build the skills we need to have stable family time.
You’ve got everything you need to move forward one step at a time. I bet you’re nervous or worried or maybe there’s stuff you wish could be different - lord knows that’s how anyone would feel. But take it one day at a time and keep an open mind, you’ll find what you need.
Yes it’s hard. Do it anyway
(Just like sweeping the floor or doing the dishes!
Oh how life is like parenting sometimes: yes it’s not what we wanted - do it anyway! This will be a good story to tell yo ur daughter when she’s older - how you made things work, by buckling down and doing what needed to be done. You’re a good mom and you’re doing the right thing by getting the job done
