Well I'll be honest here cause worth a shot. Sobstory ofc, but not expecting pity (or am I...?)

Just got out of a 2yr relationship with my kids dad, who was a narcissistic, alcoholic, selfish asswipe of a man. During the course of this relationship, I paid all bills - mine, his, and ours - despite making half what he made under some mistaken notion that it was for us despite the fact that if it was for us, he should have been spending his money on the future of "us" and our 6 month old daughter rather than drugs and alcohol.

After I left him, he told me I'd regret it and that he'd call CPS and make it so I could never see my daughter again. Well, he reported me to CPS stating I was an alcoholic drug addict who left our daughter alone to get fucked up with my friends. They wound up removing my daughter and placing her in temporary custody with my stepfather. I see her once a week for two hours for this last month because we haven't gone to pre-trial yet and the judge had to make the call based on "if everything in his report is true, is she safe?" rather than having anything to do with evidence.

Anyway, so now I have a list of rehabilitation and treatment and assessments I have to do to get my daughter back because my vindictive ex wanted to hurt me and, in doing that, hurt his own daughter if he hadn't already been selfish enough.

TL;DR: All these assessments cost money and require missing a deal of work. Can't get a second job yet because I have random classes and check ins with social workers that I can't plan for more than a week in advance. On top of going into debt prior trying to keep us afloat while we were still together (though this is very much my own fault for thinking I was doing what was right). So can't afford my rent. Need help.

Know you said these sob stories can go either way, but that's my only story right now.

Cheers.
