I did tell her people make fun of people on SA and welfare and iirc she was like "it's because those people are jealous they can't stay on their ass all day and live from the government.

In a way it is true, but it more relates to the behavior of people seeing others beneath them and spilling their vitriol of them because somehow "they made it" and you can't. It's just an ego trip and a good warning to stay away from such personalities.

I don't want to live for the givenwmtn especially if my healthcare can't cover my primary doctor.

That is a good reason for improvement. However, some jobs won't give enough health benefits to even make it even.

I was taught at a younger age to be independent.

Nothing bad.

And I feel so trapped sometimes.

We in a way all do. I used to work to pay rent, food and fuel. There's really nothing better describing the situation than "suffering" when you are starting your career and employers know that and exploit it to the fullest.

The only other job I can do would be remote work.

Try it. There's really no cost associated to it other than your time and you can always quit if you don't like it anymore.
That said, just asking around places can get you a job. Life is silly like that and people like to help.
In your instance, I would put my thoughts on a piece of paper and store it. Helps to keep head empty - I don't have to think about it, I have it written.
Write down your goals, what you currently want, what are you planning for and so on. Being creative is always better than wallowing in indecision.
For job, create your cv and just use chatgpt to write an application. Send it to like 10 positions and forget/don't think about it. Most don't even reply. Take every response as a surprise you didn't plan for. My average stats are (eyeballing here) 100 applications 10 invites to interview 1 employment. Give or take a few.
If you are on unemployment, ask your worker for help and if they have some activities/classes to complete and you get certifications and so on. There are gov. assist programs that will let you keep your income as well as getting paid for activity.

Saw this video and thought this thread could use a bump.

You all deserve the very best, queens.

I don't know what to do. My ex husband's girlfriend apparently is shit-talking my daughters (and he has now all but abandoned them) and they want nothing to do with him, a decision that my sons made a few years ago. They are upset but insist that I not tell him that they know. Im so tired. I've been supporting everyone, including him until very recently, for years. Im not Superwoman.
