Depressed with child

Having a two year old and depression is the worst, especially with no support. I only get relief from being a single mom every other weekend for a day and a half. Being in quarantine is awful my child makes me feel like he’s nagging me because he won’t leave me alone. I still make sure I feed him and bathe him but I don’t want to play. I need a break. He’s supposed to start daycare next week which will help but I honestly don’t even have the money to pay for it since I’ve been unable to work. I’ve done instacart but it’s stressful having to take my son with me. I don’t like having to put him in daycare during the covid 19 but I have to. From me and for him. Being broke adds to my depression because of the stress of not being able to pay for necessities and childhood trauma experiences. I love my baby but sometimes I really wish I didn’t have one so young and without any support. Like what was I thinking.
