Justin Doody hasn't added a story.
My name is Justin. I am disabled, both mentally and physically.
Things are getting worse and worse for me. I have very few true
friends, and none of them are in a position to where they can help. I
am unable to work, and I am not the sharpest crayon in the waffle
batter. As an example... my SSI check has been whittled down to
$310/monthly, instead of the original $791 I was told I was eligible
for... however, my rent was adjusted for the $791... so no matter that
I am only getting $310, my rent alone is $227... They also cut my food
stamps back, down to $140. So I have taken to eating once, maybe twice
a week. I despise begging... that is why it is so hard for me to even
try this last resort. I have very little faith that this will work,
but a couple of my true friends suggested that maybe, just maybe...
but I doubt it. I am only doing it as a final grasp at sanity. I
suffer from severe depression, and my mind takes me to places that I
am not comfortable discussing here. Almost all of my diagnoses stem
from a group attack that I was the victim of back in 1995, where the
cops literally did nothing to anyone.
I am not looking to make
anyone feel scammed or used. Anything that I DO get will be going
directly to bills, as well as past-due bills and food. I don't drink
alcohol, so not going to be spending anything on that crap. I have no
services or skills to offer in return... I am 40 years old, so I am
too old and too mentally screwed up to learn anything new. If anyone
feels like helping, the only thing I can offer in return are my
heart-felt thanks.
