General | Posted 6 days agoI wanted to share an update about my situation. There’s a possibility I’ll be moving into an emergency shelter soon. If that happens, I may be offline for a few weeks or possibly longer. I didn’t want to disappear without letting y'all know. I recently found out that my parent's house may be getting its power cut off, and that's gotten me to the point where I've decided that living under their roof is no longer feasible for me anymore long term
To emphasize, I live with chronic pain and a disability that make sustaining full‑time employment impractical. Daily pain and unpredictable flare‑ups limit my energy, mobility, and ability to meet consistent schedules or physical demands. As a result, I cannot reliably maintain the hours or stamina that most full‑time roles require. Meaning that securing financial stability feels like a pipe dream, especially where my government feels unreliable at best, uncaring at worst. I've been taken out of the income assistance program in my area three times for things I can't control (i.e, living in a cellular dead-zone with that makes at home check-ins impossible)
On the bright side of things, I do have a family member willing to help me secure some sort of stability and get somewhere in my life that's better for me financially, physically, and emotionally. And truthfully? I want to live my life rather than letting it pass me by in a house that's barely holding on, and held together by wood, siding and a prayer; so a massive change like this is likely the best path for me to pursue.
