At 40, I’m Struggling to Rebuild My Life and Need Advice

I have been going through a very difficult period and I need honest advice from people with life experience. A relationship that had reached the marriage stage ended badly, and it affected me deeply. I sold several properties to protect myself financially, but I have struggled to recover for years. I considered returning to my village, but family issues, especially with my brothers, make me uncomfortable living close to them. My only major asset now is an unfinished house in the village. I am considering selling it to build a smaller home elsewhere, pay rent and start a small business. I have also had thoughts of dying, but I know I need to stay alive for my child, whom I love deeply. I would appreciate practical advice, and I will reach out to someone I trust or seek urgent help if I feel unable to keep myself safe.
