I'll probably be homeless tomorrow.

Just letting you all know.

If things keep going the way they have been today and we don't get any help from someone, it's out on the street we go. We have no friends or family, so it's either a shelter or suicide (and we pretty much refuse to go to a shelter since we'll lose everything and we can't bear to go through that again). So we're going to try to call some people we know to beg for money (it's not like we can afford to have dignity at this point) since we're out of options now.

I'm at loss for words. My heart goes out to you. I don't know if there's much I can do from the other side of the planet, but PM me if there's anything I can do.

That is sad to hear. Hopefully you'll find a way to get back, or even better stay on your feet.

We don't need luck, we need someone to help us or it's all over. I mostly just posted this if I disappear from this site, so people will know what happened.

What is preventing you from getting on your feet? Money is nice but once it's used your back to square one again.

Your decisions are yours to make, but if there is nothing to lose so to speak it might be a good time to continue trying regardless of your disposition of the affair. Certainly there must be venues in Ohio you can pursue to stabilize your crisis.

No, we're going to get kicked out tomorrow by the sheriff's office so we do need money NOW. If we do get the money (obviously not), then we can focus on other things while having a roof over our heads. But it doesn't matter anymore because we're getting thrown out! On the street! That's it!

I can't work because I'm not able to. My mom doesn't make enough money. We have no friends and no family. So that's it. End of the line.

Tried that. Tried FEMA, too. The Church stopped paying people's rent and we don't meet FEMA's qualifications. Now we're calling people we know.

All of them. Not the church and FEMA, ALL of them.

We've been through the charity merry-go-round for years. They're useless unless you have a car and so can show up at 5 or 6 in the morning to fight over space to get in, or you have a kid or are pregnant, or you meet their arbitrary income standards (which we don't). Plus, charities and public services only pay a little bit. Besides, it's too late for that.

Frank, you give a whole lot of "I can't" and then say your options are A or B and A isn't happening and B is suicide.

You need to get help now. And you need to go to a shelter rather than kill yourselves. And you need to contact everyone on that list starting at 8AM tomorrow and effing try.

Tomorrow's too late. That's when we get put out. And I would rather die than lose everything again. I love my pets more than I love other people (not that other people care about me, anyway) and it'll break my heart to lose them. My mom's too old to start over and she said she'll kill herself if we're homeless. She'll lose her job. This is it. We've been through too much in this ****** life and I'm not interested in going through more ****. I know I'm worthless to society.

Suicide shouldnt be an option at all. If all you consider is suicide, then suicide would seem like the only option.

It's not the only option, but it's not looking too bad. I'm tired of this life. You have no idea what my life has been like. You'd be sick of it, too.
