Relaxing during pregnancy?

I feel like my life is falling apart, my boyfriend that I have been with for two and a half years kicked me out of my house this weekend, and I am around 8 - 12 weeks preggo. He gave me very little money and I really have nothing but a few clothes. The relationship has been somewhat verbally abuse for a while now, and I feel like now that I am pregnant, I have to think of the baby and the life that it would have if I tried to stay, or if I just walked away. So walking away seems to be the right decision. The only problem is, I am so stressed, all I have been doing is crying for days. I have no job, and less than $100 to my name. I have been staying with a friend, so expensives have been low, but I am not sure where I will live, how I will get money, and how I will afford pregnancy. I haven't been sleeping/eating well for quite a few days which I know isn't good. Just wondering some good ideas to help me take my mind off the situation, and to be able to relax. Any ideas?

Update:

I appreciate everyones advice with dealing with the situation, although, I am looking more for ideas on relaxation. I know that everything will come together in time, but I want to find something to help relax me. Right now I am very tense, and keep getting tension headaches, so I need to just have some calm time.

    well first i would try and find a job. if you dont have a car you can always work around your friends schedual. go to your local DHS office and get on pregnancy medicaid ASAP. and take care of that baby. go do things that you like to do. like for me when im sad i go shopping (its a very bad habit) or i would take my kids to the park. just anything to get your mind on the right track.

    i know that the local Work Force office has something called "right to work" or something. they train you in a job and you get paid for it. while your training it is minimun wadge but hey its money. you should go check it out. oh and when your done with training you get job placement

    your better then that scum bag anyway. your baby dosn't need a daddy that treats you like that. good luck to you!!!

    Hi, can you not go back home to mom or another member of your family? Failing that I'd suggest a church, they can and will help you whatever your denomination is or isnt. As for relaxing that just isnt going to happen until you have some stability in your life so the sooner you get a bit settled the better for both you and the wee one.

    Good luck

    Take a support from ur parents, He cant kick u out of ur own house. Get some help with a solicitor and he may suggest wht to do next. If u r in UK, Government provide living and job for those who r homeless.

    The best is to get help from parents ad ur relatives. He cant treat u like that and he is also responsible of ur child to be born. Take some steps for urself and dont let him ruin ur life. Good luck

    Try to move on with your life. If you have family to stay with, talk to them. Also, you can look into getting Medicaid to take care of the pregnancy and delivery. Also, try the WIC program or CHIP's and there is Planned Parenthood. I don't know where it is you live, but there are plenty of programs that can help. Go to your local county health dept and speak with someone there about your options. I wish you the best!
