I’ve made a couple posts about this and commissions that I’ve been reblogging over the course of however many weeks. Financial stuff is steadily getting worse and now we’re potentially going to have our water shut off…
This… is a problem, we have less than 50$ in the bank and even when my mother gets paid we won’t have enough for everything, We have to pay rent because we were late last time, we have bills and insurance to pay, my mom’s phone, a bus pass so my mother can get to work, and I’m not sure if we’re going to have any left over for food.
Food wise, we don’t..have that much, and even when we can spend on food we can only get the same cheap crap, noodles, ravioli, cereal, pizza rolls.. the same stuff I’ve been eating for weeks on end, this inability to afford more/good/better food is causing me to feel fatigued a lot, causing the pains I have from arthritis more painful, I have headaches every other day and my teeth and hair are suffering from not eating properly.
Also, I skip lunch more often than not, I haven’t eaten lunch in three days.
My mother is stressed BEYOND belief, she is ready to break down at any moment and I don’t know if I’d be able to help her if she did, She works so hard to make the shit amount of money we make, and it’s all for bills.. Our family sucks and doesn’t give a fuck about us so we can’t go to them for help and our neighbors are all strangers and the ones we know would not help us out.
My mom is already dealing with depression and struggling through constant headaches because of her job, She starts school soon and I’m not sure she’s going to be able to handle the stress of a job, trying to keep money in the house and school things.. I need to help her, I really do, she’s my mother, and she’s a really wonderful person who has gone through hell for the past 3 years since her husband passed away.
The government hates us, they took us OFF assistance when my dad died, they refuse to let us have food stamps again unless my brother and I go through a job fair that we would have to pick a job for, get training for said job and then not get paid for that job, and even if we could get food stamps back, it was a very little amount.. We’re already on assistance for some of our bills but it still isn’t enough, it’s still really hard to keep on top of all of this.
We need food, we need to keep food in the house, but we also need to keep on top of the bills and everything else, things in our house are literally falling apart and we can’t replace anything because of our shitty financial situation.
This has been… god damn I don’t even know, this cycle has been on and off since sometime last year, It’s so hard to go through this over and over again and with no hope of a fix in sight.
