We need the exact year of your car, also the battery may be shorted internally or have a dead cell so you should charge it up fully, to save time, then take it to your local auto parts store for a free test. If it is good then we can help you find the parasitic drain in your car. This test will involve an amp draw test which will use a multimeter, do you have a multimeter that can test amps? If you have one, do you know how to use it properly to test amps? Here is some help.

Hi,
If you can charge your battery enough to start the car, once the car has started use a Voltmeter to measure the voltage across the battery terminals with the engine running.
It should measure between 13.8 -14.5V DC.
If it measures less than 13.8V DC then there is a problem either with the car's alternator or voltage regulator and the battery is not charging when the motor is running.
If it measures more than 14.5V DC it is overcharging the battery which could damage the battery.
Be safety aware when you do this as the engine is running!
Also ensure that the emergency brake (hand brake) is firmly applied
