Ready Or Not, Here I Go!!!!

[Abstract]

Hi SG,
I don't want to be annoyingly upbeat ( :meh: ) but try not to panic yet. Sometimes things seem hopeless and then we find something good comes of it instead. This is what I say to myself when I feel trapped or overwhelmed anyway.

If you brainstorm and write down everything you can think of no matter how much you don't like the idea then what comes to mind as options?

Dear Abstract,

I don't have options. My money is gone and I've exhausted all options. Anything I choose takes money. I really am done. I'm trying not to panic. :cry:

:hug: Sailorgal. I am here for you my friend.

 

[Sailorgal]

Thanks Jaret. Really means a lot.

Oh Sailorgal, I am sorry. Safe hugs if they are useful. Sending you a box of tissues.

It seems she isn't saying for you to leave straight away so it is possible that something will come up before you leave.

Is there no state help because of your PTSD? Any other friends you could ask? Any other basic jobs you could do to tide you over until you find something you really want? Anything you could do that would mean employing yourself/bringing in an income without a job? There are usually hostels that one can live in for small amounts (for if you find a basic job).

I am assuming family is a no go.

MissMacD, You're speaking right. Now a days there are many miserable jobs around which we wouldn't like to do.

I have no idea where you live in the world but most places have women's shelters and social aid if you are in a pickle and need a place to stay temporarily until something better materializes.

 

[Sailorgal]

I cant even get a job paying $10/hr.

Any social services are out of the question as the requirements have changed. Im not eligible for anything.

Oh dear dear Sailorgal, how did this discussion with your room-mate begin? It can feel very very disappointing and discouraging to have gone through what you have, going through all of it is stressful enough. :( Please please try to stay calm as possible, and wait til the morning. As right as it is to grieve, a lot can change with the rising of the sun, including your room-mate's thoughts. Could it be that you are both reacting, I just know for myself there can be the grief and stress, then (and) sorrow, depression, panic, and the same in reply from your room-mate.

If this isn't helpful, please ignore it. But know I am pulling for you, please keep writing.

((((((((((((((((((Dear Sailorgal, xoxoxox))))))))))))

I've been there and I know how hard it is. Things somehow sorted themselves out, and I will be hoping/praying/holding thumbs/doing raindances (take your pick) that something will happen to get you through this and safely to the other side. Often we focus too intently on the obstacles - and I understand this so well - while we need something to happen, which we can't make happen. Thinking of you.

Sailorgal keeping you in my thoughts. I am praying that you will get your job and your own place so you never have to worry about changing places.
