It's already embarrassing enough that I'm even searching for help. It takes a lot for me to put my pride to the side to do this or even ask anyone for anything. I'm usually very independent and can make a way, but it's been so hard and damn near impossible for me to get on my feet for my 2 sons and myself. I don't want empathy; I just want someone to understand the struggle.
My name is Tara Stewart from Youngstown, Ohio. I am a single mother of 2 boys (13 & 8), 32 years old, unemployed, and out of options at this point. It's already embarrassing enough that I am outside of my standards to ask for help. I've been severely depressed since my mother passed away last year from Lymphoma and a brain tumor at the age of 53. She was my only friend that I trusted, who had faith in me, and would never give up on me no matter what. During my 20s I was on a roller coaster ride with ups and downs by hanging with the wrong people. Nevertheless, what made me realize that that wasn't the life for me was when my mother was going through her last days, I couldn't be there for her because I was in prison. That was the worst possible thing that could happen to me. While I was out there running the streets and being selfish of those who loved me, I could have been spending more time with her. I had to shake it off then because I didn't want my kids to EVER go through that with me. So, since she's been gone, I've been trying so hard to get on my feet, but nothing has gone right yet and it's getting harder and harder to take care of myself, let alone my boys. I refuse to let them down. They are all I have left. Basically, I'm looking for a little help to get me up a little. All bills are behind, no vehicle, and are almost homeless. I'm usually very independent and can make a way, but it's been so hard and damn near impossible to get on my feet. I don't want empathy; I just want someone to understand the struggle. If you don't understand, then I'm sure you have a heart.
