Today  is just a lousy day and I am not dealing well with it.I have recently started to go out side after being housebound for almost 4 months. I used to feel so proud of this fact that I did something good for me. But today I have no hope for a better life. The job has gone down the tubes along with the buidling I live in is gone into  foreclosure so that mean a move(which I can't do myself phsically).I have no hope at all for anything to get better and it scares the heck out of me.

Middlechild,

Where there is breath there is hope. I know I have been where you are. I had to more in 3 days one time. 3 days, 47 miles I had my car and no money.

But someone I never expected to help did. You must ask people for assistance, and keep asking. You never know who will come to your rescue. I know, you feel like a burden, its been to long. blah blah, blah.

What is the worst that can happen? They will say no. and you will be no worse off than you are now. However, someone will help. You have to have faith in people, they are not all bad.

So put that half smile on, start looking for a new place, call housing agencies to help you. If you are on disability call Catholic Charities see if they have any leads.

There is always another job too. May not be the one we want, but it might pay the bills for a time.

I know it is hard and all you want to do is hide under the covers, that will not fix anything. You got yourself out of the house, you can do this.
Keep posting here, we support, we listen and we care.

Stay strong and proactive for yourself

Peace
Trina

Hi Middlechild,

Trina is right, we have to be proactive when we are in these situations. Where there is a will, there is a way. Do ask around for help. Do look for another place. Don't wait until the last minute. I am not sure how long it takes in a foreclosure, but I would start looking now. You might find a job in the process.

Have faith, take life one day at a time. And keep posting because it helps to get your feelings out.

Hugs, Karen...

PS  I know what you mean about getting out of the house.  It has been hard for me lately too.  It has been a long winter and it is taking it's toll on me.  Keep trying...

I think today I just got overwhelmed in my pity which I have not allowed myself in months.

In the process of checking out new apts.I'm pretty lucky there since my brother will be helping me  with the $$ for setting it up.

I have worked for the same brother for almost 10 years and he's feeling the pain  of minimal work.He's got a family so it's harder on him.

I had a stroke a few years back and I don't know if it's the aftereffect but I'm so unsteady on my feet.Sure not like I was..so sure of myself.

Like I said I think i overwhelmed myself with pity. But I really appreciate your comments and ideas.

Tomorrow is another day!!!!

It sounds like you are feeling better. This forum is a good place to come and put your thoughts down. It helps to get it off your chest. We all feel overwhelmed sometimes. One day at a time is the best way to go. And yes, there is always tomorrow. I hope that you have a good evening.

Hugs, Karen...
