About your weight and facial hair - you may have polycystic ovaries (PCOS) you can cut and paste our PCOS page here: https://www.empowher.com/condition/polycystic-ovarian-syndrome/definition
PCOS can also lead to depression.
You've had an obviously troubled past. Sexual abuse can lead to substance abuse and promiscuity. A home invasion and a home deliberately burned down, as well an ill mother and absent father all come together to form poor relationships later on and a divorce can lead to financial hardship. This is a domino effect of not getting help and support as a child and becoming less able to self-care as an adult.
It's little wonder you feel how you do.
Anon, you can't be a victim anymore, as I can tell you already know. Apply for Medicaid and get yourself into a doctor for a full health check up. Seek therapy for your mental health and ask to learn the tools you need to restart your life. You can actually do that, as hard as those first few steps will be. You owe yourself a fresh start - you deserve it. I do believe you have a desire to get out of this horrible state - if not, you wouldn't be looking for someone to talk you. You have taken the first step but now you need to do a little bit more and take it step by step, day by day.
Will you keep in touch with us and let us know how you are doing?
Best,
Susan
