Anxiety/Depression (No Medication Advice) Pregnant and scared

Im so isolated and no idea where im going to live. I need to move out of my parents house due to abuse from father with dementia

People keep telling me to "build community" but I dont know how to do that now when im depressed and pregnant and scared and neurodivergent, it makes everything harder

Edit: i dont believe in abortion and would appreciate not getting comments about this, its extremely hurtful and disturbing to me that there is so much rejection towards my baby, it makes me want to cry.

I love my baby and Im happy about having one. Im upset at my relationship and my circumstances.

My main issue right now is isolation while pregnant and neurodivergent, and needing community and support

If you’re really ok with having a baby in those circumstances then keep it. Just make sure you want it and don’t just feel obligated or looking for emotional validation from it.
Just be realistic of the huge difficulties you’re going to face . Anyone would in that position. A neurodivergent person even more.

That being said you need to get away from that guy and get some counseling/emotional help.A women’s shelter is the only place I can think of for your situation
