Always Alone

I used to shot up meth with someone I thought forever otherwise I wouldn't use a needle anyway. It wasn't forever. I was diagnosed with hep c in 2014, and I was a raging alcoholic. Oh so bad. Anyway, my oldest daughter and I have an apartment together now. I need a job but no one believes me when I tell them I'm so very tired. I can sleep for six days at a time. I know I've seen me do it, and yes I'm sure depression is part of that. My health insurance wont pay for treatment until I'm really badly off. Just got done being denied for the second time. I feel I'm going to lose the only stable home we have known for a few years. I've been on my own since I was 13. Homeless over eight years and sometimes I fear leaving my apartment. Afraid it will be gone by the time I come back. Sometimes I feel like ending this cuz its gonna end so why not sooner?
