This is it

Money. It’s all about that isn’t it?

Yeah, I know it’s only $3.99, but OD is just a luxury I can’t have anymore along with Peacock TV and Spotify.

By the end of the week after bills, I don’t really eat anymore.

I believed in Trump, but turns out government is government no matter who is in charge and they will continue to destroy the working poor.

Of course it’s not just him, I work for a company that expects 75 hours of work for only 35 hours of pay.

I’m a broke and beaten up man who can’t physically do 2 jobs a week. Could I make more money as a garbage man, oh yeah, but will my body allow me to do it, no.

So I’m sacrificing all and any I can.

Not sure what else to cut

I used to judge life by being able to pay my rent with one check. That doesn’t happen anymore

I like to smoke. That’s now done and over.

The hits just keep coming year after year.

Only just 7 years ago I had everything a man could want and now I live in a cold dark studio apartment. I use water sparingly. Just have one light. Set the thermostat to 60. Eat off paper plates, which will have to end because it’s probably cheaper to have actual plates.

Therapy is now a luxury I can not afford. Along with a steady Doctor’s visit.

I need a go fund me for life…

I’m sorry to see you go and appreciateyou letting us know. There’s not many people left here anyway after all the spam started happening. While you seem to be in a better place mentally since I first started reading you, I hold out hope that you will start viewing yourself more positively and find the relationships you seek. And if not, that you can accept what is and find peace within and around you.

Oh you poor thing. I say this in all seriousness – you keep writing and wondering where it all went wrong- then you come out with being a trump supporter- oh dear. I would start there, were I you, and get your brain out of that mindset and I bet all will begin to fall into place for you. Best of luck.
