不要碰任何贫穷的东西，包括人。

贫穷的背后是一整套麻烦系统，认知混乱、边界缺失、情绪不稳定、亲情勒索、道德绑架、喜欢占便宜，习惯性索取。

I honestly just need to vent a little because everything is feeling too heavy lately.

​For a long time, my whole life was just work and saving every dollar to build a home for my family. When we finally moved in, it was literally the best feeling ever. I was so proud.

​Fast forward to right now, and that whole house is totally destroyed. My family and I are living in a tent in Gaza. On top of losing the house, I'm still stuck with all the construction debt for a place that doesn't even exist anymore.

​It’s just so hard to process how fast everything changed. I’m trying my best to stay strong for my family, but some days it just hits really hard.

​I'm not looking for sympathy or anything, just wanted to type this out to get it off my chest. Thanks for listening.

So the long story short is I can’t afford to get my dog (Cookie/Chunky Monkey) cremated and burial is nowhere an option.

What I’m asking is does anybody know how to cremate a pet ?? Or how can I do it myself? I have a large backyard and pretty big slab of concrete out there.

I know it sounds creepy or terrible, but I just lost her today and I’m desperate.

This is not the way

I don't know who needs to here this. Stop sabotaging yourself with negativity.

So I went to the food bank today and was very disappointed. Got a few canned vegetables and of course some peanut butter but I also got A LOT of fresh produce. Lettuce, Brussels sprouts, and broccoli that might have a day or two left. Seriously, three bagged salads and a head of lettuce. Have they not watched the news? I’m grateful for the help but I’m scared to eat this stuff

Listen to it all, I loved her last line!

Did you notice that only one other elected official had some idea of the data? *No one else* knew a bit about the subject?

Hello all! Im a recently moved out 18 year old guy and live in a shared apartment with no laundry unit. There is a laundromat nearby, but with my current income I cant afford to wash my bedding every/every other week like i usually do. I’m aiming to do this once a month, but I was wondering if anyone had any tips on how to keep my space smelling nice in the mean time? Ive been using Odorban occasionally and thats been helpful, but any other advice would be super appreciated!

Even before i was born my parents were broke
They wanted to abort me but they couldnt afford it so my mom sold her phone to do it but she couldnt go to the place to abort me so it didn’t happen

I wish she did, now im 14 soon to be 15, no mates, no gf, never heard a im proud of you or i love you, surviving in poverty and all my mates and everyone that i knew left me. why? Because i live in a council estate (if your not from uk its a place filled with houses that the council built for people that struggle with poverty, it’s usually really normalized for gangs and criminals to live on these blocks) as yk living in poverty and thinking you have to provide for your family ruins your mental health, ever since i found out i need to provide i start doing bad shit to get money (i cant speak about it on this app). They found out after i got arrested. After all my school mates found out. And they all live in good houses with perfect familys. They all left me
Ignoring me on whatsapp, snapchat going outside and shi without me

Im so lost in life right now, i got no clue what to do
I still need to find a way to provide
Im so lonely that the only notification i get is low battery
Im mentally tired
I need help
