I am so sorry for your situation.
You need to seek help. You already found your way to this Mayo site. That is a good first step. I don’t know where you live but I urge you to get help by calling or texting this number. ( Note it is a crisis lifeline, not just suicide)
In the U.S., call or text 988 to reach the 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline, available 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Or use the Lifeline Chat. Services are free and confidential.
Can you talk to your doctor? Do you have access to a women’s shelter? Both of these could provide guidance.
I wish your plea for help would be flagged as urgent but that’s not how this site works, apparently. ( I was looking for info on tinnitus and just saw your post in a sidebar. )
I urge you to continue to reach out. Stay strong.

Thank you all for the replys. I go through each day knoing it will be hard. Just looking for the small wins. A cookie or a shower, it is something I can enjoy even for a sec. Living in a cave is more like it. I keep my head down and manage my PTSD as well as I can. Not wanting to sleep in my car is a great motivator. With my health the way it is, it is getting harder to keep fighting. Knowing I would never make it in a shelter or on the street makes me keep grinding out every second
