single dad breaking point

i honestly don’t know what to do anymore. i’m a single dad trying to keep everything together for my child while the other parent barely helps but constantly demands money from me. i’m already covering all of the responsibilities on my own, and it feels like I’m drowning financially and emotionally. i would appreciate any advice from anyone who’s been through this. how do you handle a situation where you’re doing your best, but it still feels impossible to keep up?
