I clicked this link pronto and here I am, all alone. I've got some major financial issues, mostly student loans. I am also financially crippled in that I don't have enough money to rent my own apartment. I live with my mother for christ sakes. More later, I just got overwhelmingly depressed just thinking about this.

welcome compassionate vegan
no your not alone i'm in debt to the tune of at least a few hundred grand ,probably a million buck's.
i cant work , if i do work they will mess with or cancel my benefits
and my pill's cost about a thousand dollers.a month.
if i work they will take all my money,i cant own a house,support a family
it's cheaper for the goverment that i dont work than if i do because
it will cost them tens of thousands everyear to pay for supports
and services that i require if im ever going to work again and live independently. plus they exploit me in every way they can after drugging me silly and purposesly denying me natural accomadations
for my disabilities and drugging me to "cure" my disability which is as i find out my political views and that i'am not brainwashed a fact
which the careproviders did their best to remedy,and i'm an individual
and dont believe state and church,corporate,societty mind control is healthy or a good thing , i followed forensic science they followed industry generated eugenism,political thought reform sold as science
i take medicine for the effects a head injury,and genetically transmitted ,deppression,thought disorders,panic anxiety,adhd, all of which i could compensate for with help without drugs.
i live with my mother because she needs me .
i really would like mny own place but my mother is eighty and im not letting them stick her in a home.
my life is almost over, as im 44.
im still a virgin never had a steady girl freind and i dont see how i will given my situation, but i'm having a vasectomy in the future so i can have sex as if i have sex without one i might make a baby with my disabilities and if i had one how would i love and support that child.
life can always be worse, take one day at a time ,one hour,the next ten minutes and the years will go quickly and if you plan short long term goals and use a daily schedule you will have a better future. if deppression is the problem meds will help or you will find ways of beating it naturally or both. please where ever you are seek me out ,if you need to talk . sincerely your new friend stigmastomper we will find our answers together my advice is to post your questions in general on any of or all the forums you want to do so on . new members,bipolar,schizophrenia,deppression. to get the most feed back there are great people on this site and they will all try to help you once they realize your here .
i was wonderering if you have a psychiatrist,general doctor,social worker and advocate ,case manager ,psychologist,reverend .and /or a support group you could talk to. im not saying you need all that just that those people can help you..
also it is possible to under certain circumstances to get alot of free help from the goverment in the usa ,and in the community. theres also supports in colleges for those people who have disabling conditions and in practically every church.
also i have griped abouut alot of things just now talking to you but thats because the bad things that can happen and have to me really hurt and otherwise are no fun. but i made mistakes or wasnt strong or healthy enough and too proud to get help and do what was best for me. trust me my life was the epitomy of hell before i went for help, even with all the screw ups ,politics,bigotry ,mistakes,exploitation,and so on . my life is a billion times better and iam stronger because i got the help i needed and when im not being a defeatest haviong an aniety attack or tantrumn because i'm so frustrated , my future looks bright , no matter what. i will be your freind for the rest of your life if you want and i will help you as much as i can and im stone cold serious that i litereally will keep in touch wityh you for as long as you needed someone to talk to . because i know how you feel or to a degree i do. good luck and stay in touch. |

It's been a while since we've heard from you so welcome back. I have always been very careful with my money. When my ex first left me my kids were small and I had been home with them for several years and we got by on welfare for a while. So I know how to survive on not much. But when I got really sick with depression, those skills went right out the window. I went through a ton of money and I don't even know where it went. So now that I'm feeling a bit better I have to pay the consequences. I don't know how long it's going to take me to dig myself out of this hole. But I just wanted you to know you're not alone. BTW I haven't been able to work so I'm living on long term disability from my old job. It's not bad, but not like my old salary. Hope you keep posting.

Hi Friends,
It's been a while since I've been here. The days go by, some good, most boring. Good news on the Student Loan debt...I applied for a hardship with the loan holders by having my doctors fill out a form from social security. A couple of months later I received a letter stating they would no longer garnish my tax returns and are in the process of dismissing the loan. I haven't heard the final decision yet but so far so good!
I so want to work but my mental health won't allow it for now. I broke my foot last week so that's keeping me from things I want to do (but even though I think I want to do something I never do because I have too many fears).
Peace!

I am working but barely coping, i have lots of accounts to pay, mostly doctors,i have a medical aid but even that is not helpfull because there are so many rules and depression is not really considered to be a serious problem.
I also live with my parents, i am 23 but in my community its normal, you only move out when you get married.
if i dont work i am out on the streets, its very difficult to find a job, so i have no choice,but to work. there is no support financially, be it for depression or any other illness, and by some miracle i get financial aid, it wont even be enough for me to survive.
Other employees are always angry with me because i take so many days sick leave, my boss doesnt like to give me time off to see my doctor.
i just try and take each day as it comes and i am at a point were i just dont care about my job,or what other co-workers think, they are all very interested to know why i take so much leave but its out of concern, its just a new topic for them to gossip about. that hurts the most.
