I’m 22. On the verge of becoming a single mother. I’ve been sheltered for most of my life because I have super strict parents. They never raised me to be independent and I grew up being scared of the world because of how they perceived it.

I got pregnant and married at 20. I had nothing to support myself (still don’t) and I depended on my husband 100%. I HATED IT. This year I need major changes but I don’t know where to begin. I’ve never worked a real job. I don’t even have my own bank account. I have a learners permit but not license. I don’t know much about credit or things like that. I just need someone to seriously help me and give me advice. I feel so lost but trying so desperately to do better for myself and my daughter. I have huge goals and dreams but just need guidance. Comment if you’re willing to help. Thanks in advance 🙌🏽
