Welcome!
I know how you feel. it's hard to accept life for the way it is but that's what we have to do to be happier.
I struggle with it too. And trying to live in the moment. Have you looked into the food bank in your area? Some churches will help you out temporarily with finances and some even have their own food banks. I hope things improve for you soon.
Oh wow - sounds incredibly hard. It’s probably good you don’t have children. I know it was your dream but you need to take care of yourself first.
You mentioned a payee. Does someone control your disibility income?
Can you get food stamps?
Where in Texas? I live in northeast Texas. I don't have a great vehicle, so it couldn't be too far, but if close, i could do it if the OP couldn't.
Probably too far I'm in San Antonio
Ahh, yeah, I'm in Smith County, so it would be too far for me to drive, sadly. It takes about 4 to 5 hours to get to Houston from here, depending on traffic, etc. My vehicle isn't reliable enough to trust that trip, lol (2000 model SUV). I hope u find someone to help u with the plants. I wish the OP the best in trying to find a solution to their issues, too. 🙏
🤷🏼♂️ we open carry in Texas, so it's no physical danger for me. I try to treat others as i would want to be treated, so if someone needs help, i try to offer it (if it's something I'm capable of doing, & i have the means). I understand, tho. It's probably not wise to offer or accept help from strangers here, It was just my initial reaction.
I'm glad you are here, but sorry you are going through such a hard time. I hope it helps that we are here to support you.
😒 why
That feels kinda demeaning to people who are just trying to reach out for help or trying to improve themselves. Should people be scared of you since you're here too? I'd be more scared of the people who don't reach out. I guarantee tons of "normal" people actually need help the most. But I respect the fact that you're entitled to your own opinion. 👌
Nobody offered anyone "money". I offered her a job since she said "financially I have been struggling a lot as well I am on disability and they refuse to help me with my monthly pay". And so what if I have been here a week. You're offering nothing and getting angry at someone offering help. If that makes you upset it isn't my problem sorry. Hope you feel better with whatever is upsetting you today. Take care
All I've seen you do here is criticize someone who was trying to help another person. So yeah it's sad that nobody actually knows what you do and can only see that part.
I know what kenster1 does here and I am very grateful to him
🐬
took my comments down no need for them anymore.
That's why it's a shame that this little spat even occurred. Especially when there were good intentions behind it.
I didn't see the word exchange. I just wanted wanted to share that I know and I'm very grateful he is here
It was nothing major, just a little disagreement. I think he's just being protective of everyone here and I appreciate that actually. And I'm grateful for anyone here that helps others. 🙏
