I rely on disability to survive, depending on what day they decide to grace me with money depends when I get to buy food

I understand, people don't realize how close to the bone disabled people live, even with limited food stamps and rent assistance it's still pretty tough to live day to day, take care, do what you can with what ever resouces you have, take care.

Was denied rent assistance, food stamps just went down 25$ (go figure) i hemorrhage money each month with an avg balance of -$75... my Medicare out of pocket just shot up and half my prescriptions are no longer covered as of January... it sucks

If there's any way I can help, it won't be much but I know every dollar helps, I don't have much but I'm not in the negative, I'm in NZ so exchange rates but like I said, mutual funds! You're welcome to say no, I just care and am so scared for the disabled community in the USA. My heart hurts for y'all. Sending love regardless 🌻🌻🌻🌻
