I’m Sooo Scared, I Really Need My Friends

Post Reply New Topic

I have to move out by the end of the month. I had money in a trust fund but I have no money now, my sister was paying my rent & bills, she cannot pay anymore. My rent is $1,861 for 1 bedroom. I have a short time to move out. I have sooo much stress, anxiety, panic attacks, sooo overwhelmed & crying My sister is finding me place to live, I keep getting acid reflux too. I need more boxes. I really cannot to things by myself. I also have Psoriatic Arthritis, that affects the bones soooo bad, I always have body pain. I’m scared, I feel all alone. I want to die.

I wish you could get the help you need. I know i would be a mess dealing with all this with no help.

I hope my post will make you feel better.

I know this might not mean much but I think you're being really brave.

I'm so sorry you are having to go through this.

I'm glad that your sister is finding you a place to live.

Can you use garbage bags to carry some things if you don't have enough boxes?

Best wishes to you.

I hope your sister finds you a suitable place to live.

Nearly $2,000 a month sounds a lot for a 1 bedroom, but I suppose you do live in California which is known to be expensive...

Moving is extremely hard and stressful. Last time I moved (2022) it was hell from start to end, and I was sure it would never end. The good news is that you have family to help you. They know you have mobility issues and I'm sure they'll do most of the physical work for you. It's also nice that your sister is helping to find somewhere a little cheaper for you. In the meantime let them know how much you need their help, and how much you appreciate everything they do. This will be over in no time and I look forward to your updates on the new digs.

How is your kitty doing?

Sorry you’re under so much stress with having to move. Hoping you get the help you need with packing, cleaning etc & that you’ll be able to settle into a new place & feel safe & secure there. We’re all behind you & hope you know you are very cared about. It’s a huge upheaval moving, and once your sister finds you a new place, hopefully once you see it, you might feel a bit better about starting a new chapter there. Accepting change when we don’t want that change, can be so hard. But, hopefully once you’re settled in, you’ll feel calmer & more secure. Go gentle on yourself, you clearly will need help with packing etc. Your sister will hopefully reassure you about everything as best she can. xx

I'm sorry you're going through this and really hope that the next few weeks go as smoothly as possible.

Do you have flexibility on where you live or do you need to remain in that area due to proximity to your family, doctors, etc.? Given the difficult situation you're in and how time sensitive it is, just wondering if looking in a less expensive area could help a little.

I put alot of my clothes, towels & stuff in garbage bags. I ordered some stuff that I need, so I have some new boxes, my neighbors gave me some boxes

My suggestions are: Whichever problem you are stuck at, whatever the complexity, reach out for help. Anywhere. It can be incredibly useful. If it doesnt help, look somewhere else. Solve things one at a time. Switch your focus if needed. At times, try to look at the problem as if you were looking into the past. It can settle the fog.
