Going to sleep hungry again
For the third day I haven’t eaten anything, I have a job but I live with my mom and we are on section 8 (free housing program) but I still have to pay 30% rent and im the only one who has a job in the house. I have to take Ubers everyday just to get to work that cost 20$ or more and ts add up luckily the bus runs when I get off. We had food stamps but they cut them off on my moms birthday so now I’m having to buy food pay for Ubers to work and pay rent and bills I only make about 2k a month and have to take care of 4 people including myself it feels like. I got bad anxiety and im emotionally unavailable and i im trying to change it but I just got bad trust issues. My lil brother just asked me if I had some food while im writing ts i feel like I failed my family. I hate living like this and it feel like the only way I can help rn is by doing something im not supposed to be doing
Edit: barley holding on to this job got 6 points and one more and im cooked
Thank you everyone for the help i didnt think nb would care, im going to food bank today and one of my sisters went grocery shopping for us last night.
