I Have Been Homeless

*Trigger warning*

I am really scared because my lease is ending and I am on the brink of homelessness. My awful job fired me even though I tried explaining to them my health related issues. I am going to end up living in my car in a week or so, and I have never felt so hopeless. My dad won't or can't help me and I do not want to tell my mom anything. I have been trying to look for jobs but I do not know what to do.

I been looking at transitional homes, but the reviews are bad. I got in contact with a therapist, but ever since I lost my job I have been applying. I don't want to wake up, I lie in my bed all day thinking of a suicide plan and ways to escape. I feel worse than I felt when I was in high school. I feel like I can't handle being a adult, and I have been cutting again. And I have been crying all day. Thanks for reading this.

@Notanymore I am from ohio but I live in Az

Notanymore · 36-40, M

Oh....well.....I am moving from my place....but it's in Virginia. I'm sorry for your troubles. I wish there was a way to help

Notanymore · 36-40, M

Maybe there's a better logistical path?

veoh112 · 22-25, F

@Notanymore I cannot think of anything and I have to pay my college deposit soon. I do not know any logistical path

Notanymore · 36-40, M

Just because you don't currently know the path.... doesn't mean there's no path

veoh112 · 22-25, F

@Notanymore I wish I did know someone who could help me but I do not. Or I wish I knew someone in AZ but I do not, and I cannot think of anything except the few plans I made

Notanymore · 36-40, M

So you have plans.....

veoh112 · 22-25, F

@Notanymore The only plans I have created are my living in my car plans because it is the only option. Or beg and plead for money to my dad

Notanymore · 36-40, M

[sep] okay.... I'm not much for begging..... there's got to be a decent hustle around your part of az

veoh112 · 22-25, F

@Notanymore What hustle, there is no hustle here

Notanymore · 36-40, M

Okay.....and the low income housing is out of the question?

veoh112 · 22-25, F

@Notanymore I lost my job by my awful company so I think that is out of the question. The only thing I can think is a go fund me or something

Notanymore · 36-40, M

That sucks

veoh112 · 22-25, F

@Notanymore It does a lot

Notanymore · 36-40, M

How can I help?

veoh112 · 22-25, F

@Notanymore I do not know? but any type of help is appreciated because I have zero friends who can help

Notanymore · 36-40, M

Okay......hi. I'm Andy

veoh112 · 22-25, F

@Notanymore I have to keep applying until I find a job with decent pay, so I can move into a apartment. Andy if you or anyone can help me that would be great :))
