Ummm... maybe you can tell us?
What circumstances led up to the things you describe in your question?

What happened is some combination of bad fortune and bad decisions; no-one here knows the proportion any better that you do. The prognosis is that it's not almost certainly irredeemable situation, and what will happen from here is still largely in your hands.

The prognosis for this question is not so good.

You fucked it up. I doubt you meant to, but choices lead to responses to those choices. I'm not saying you made bad ones (you're the only person who can decide that), but they're the choices you made, for better or worse.

So, what are you going to do now? Sit in prison and wallow in your misery, guilt and self pity? Or use this chance and the insight you have to turn your life around? What you are going to do is more important than what you've done, in some respects.

there is nowhere near enough information here for anyone to answer this "question" with anything useful.

I suspect this is a troll... flagged

Somehow, I don't picture a single meta poster ever using the term Baby Momma. Ugh.

"Almost dead" is still better than "mostly dead."

Since when is "baby momma" is hyphenated? Fake.
