Being ashamed of yourself is natural. Are you unemployed? You need to pull yourself together and learn how to budget money just because that is the one talent that will pull you through hard times.
Save money even if you don't earn much. It's a habit that will make it possible to support your daughter and yourself. Go to church and talk to the pastor and confess to him or her that you are unable to handle this situation and you want to learn how to make your finances and your life work.
Honey, you can do it. You can leave the shame behind and get to work changing the situation. Maybe you are a low wage-earner; that is something you can make a temporary thing if you can get some skills through education. Social service agencies are good for setting you on the right path. Use all the advice they give you.
If you are dealing with a vice that takes all your resources, then get the drastic help that will make you clean and sober. That includes dealing with gambling.

You shouldn't dwell on how you feel so much & focus your energy more on fulfilling the needs of your daughter. You may want to start off with some kind of temporary aid(welfare/unemployment etc.) do some hoomework & find out what options or resources are available to fit your situation. Then start your job hunt right away & try to be optomistic meanwhile. Although times like this may seem discouraging, keeping your priorities in order & being able to accomplish your goals, will not only strengthen your soul, you'll be a good role model for your daughter to follow. Just take it one day @ a time. Best of luck.

Don't be ashamed if you're making an effort to take care of her. Cut out on bills that you don't HAVE to have until you can get back on your feet. If you can't find a decent job, go to an agency who can find a suitable job for you. Keep your head up, and do the best that you can. Best of luck to you.

Instead of being ashamed of yourself, think what you can do to support yourself. Instead of thinking negatively, stand up and think what are allll the different things you can do to change this existing situation. Negative thinking and self pity is not whats needed here, but action!

It sounds like a private investigator might want to finally end up being your fantastic answer. There can be a fee in contact, for sure, and that could want to count on how frustrating it would want to be to music her down. even though it may no longer be all that difficult for a pro to finish. sturdy success.

Don't I know that feeling! I'm a single mother and on limited income, so once my money comes in, it pretty much goes straight to bills. As long as you are providing a good home, good food, and a good atmosphere, you're doing all right. Good things come to those who wait.

well if you feel ashamed of your self don't just sit there and entertain that feeling of yours....stand up friend! find something to earn you money to support yourself and your daughter.
There are many works out there you can do you know...if you a woman, even if you don't have that much education. You can surely get a laundry job, cleanning job, shop assistance, and many more...and if you find difficult to leave you daughter alone because she maybe too small, try some baby-sitting job or sell something, like many people do here in my country they work as street hawker.
If you a man...sure there are more opportunity for you to earn you money man! it is all up to you to take your stand and courage to move forward.
My husband have been in that condition for about 3 years because of fallen sick...and i myself jobless....my husband don't let me to go back to my nursing career because of jealoussy that time...i didn't just sit down & cry...i told myself i need to find something to support my 4 growing up children...it is a hard job but i willing to do it...go out in the junggle and became a rubbber tapper(to get a latex milk from a rubber tree to sell)..it is very tiring and hard job but i told myself i need to do something to feed my children.
Thanks God! all is well know, my husband has let me to go back to nursing and he himself manage to get a cab to drive to earn the finance.
So..what i want to tell you here is ....it is all up to you.....There will be always a way, all you need to do is find that way and improve you life for you and your daughter.
