I've been struggling a lot lately with feeling very isolated and alone. I also feel that life has become very very predictable and repetitive.
Me and my husband don't have a car. It broke about 2 years ago. We haven't really had the money to get a new one. I spend most of my time in our apartment. It's beginning to feel extremely suffocating. I feel like every day is a repeat of the day before. There aren't really any local things I can do nearby. I also am struggling to find online communities that I connect with.
I did buy an electric scooter recently. I'm having a bit of difficulty figuring it out, but I'm hoping it will help some. Even then, the only prospect I can think of is a church that is about 2 miles away. I have limited options of what I"m comfortable doing around here because I am part of the LGBTQ community and I live in a rural area. There are lots of folks around here who wouldn't support me.
Sorry. This is probably a lot to share in one post. I'd appreciate any feedback.

Life can be so terribly sad at times, and indeed unfair. I am sorry for all that you are going through right now- it sounds like a lot! But, you have some blessings that we must remember and recognize: a husband, an electric scooter, access to the internet, and some people who care about you... including us here
Is it possible for you to teach online? There are some online teaching and tutoring jobs that I have done, and it requires little education and pays well. I also have seen at my local habitat for humanity stores that they sell cars that are inspected by mechanics for very cheap. There are some other options I can think of, it you want to chat please message me.
I actually was doing that. I was teaching through VipKid. It was an ESL job that taught Chinese kids. It fell through after the Chinese Government decided they don't want foreign teachers teaching their kids.
