I guess if people see this and they have thoughts, lmk. I can’t guarantee that itd work in my situation, but I’d be willing to hear people out.

Ok I quit. Boss msgs me, asking if I’d be willing to do a leave of absence. I said I’d be ok with talking to her over a call.

However, I already went to her and explained I need time off. I can’t do the job due to mental and physical health. And a billion other reasons.

So please tell me, even tho you’ve been an incredible boss, how you’re going to convince me that causing trauma to a child is going to be worked around. How you’re going to magically have a solution to me being over worked.

I’m genuinely curious in the most bitter way.

I’ve figured out with my fiance that in order to pay my bills, I need at least $750 a month. Of course I also need groceries.

On his income alone, we could apply for food stamps. It won’t cover a ton, but it’ll cover a bit.

And as far as me making the $750, food delivery, donating plasma (which has other benefits of actually helping people) and babysitting. Hell there’s the little girl across from us I could talk to her mom about it. I could also walk dogs, they also have dogs, not saying they’ll be all for it, but it’s worth a shot. Who knows. There’s apps for it too.

And all of this I could do while still having my daughter when she comes back from her dad’s, and focus on school. It’s going to be hell. But maybe less of a hell than being forced to cause trauma, when I am literally getting my degree to help people with trauma.

I’m angry, I’m depressed. I’m impossibly anxious. Idk what to do with no education, physical and mental illness, and needing to provide for myself, my daughter, and helping my fiance.

I’ve googled and searched YouTube and Pinterest. Everything seems so redundant. Start a blog, do surveys, idk how that’d give me $750 a month. Hell idk if I can afford the gas to do food delivery considering gas is $4 a gallon.

I’ve never advertised my commissions on here actively but this is a new thing I wanna do while I’m working on my Sinker AU! Feel free to shoot me a message if you’re interested! And if not could you help me out and reblog this? It would mean a lot while I’m in between jobs!

I’m an equal distance from 20 as I am to 30 rn, and while I know 30 isn’t very old it still feels scary. I’ve been an adult for 7 years and have nothing to show for it besides a string of bad decisions and wasted time.

Just wondering if I'll ever have a family...

If you happen to pass by my blog on a somewhat regular basis, you can all the that this weekend things are heavy on my soul. Well, heavier than usual...

I hear people talking about the upcoming Christmas and how they are going to celebrate with their families. It's not that this Christmas I won't have a Christmas tree for the first time in my life...it's very possible that I may not even have a safe place to stay.

Since I was little I always wanted to be a mom. People always said I'd be a great mom. I'm a teacher after all! My little students loved me and their parents always said that I was like a second mom to them.

I don't know if I'll ever find a person who loves me for who I am and wants to be with me without hurting me. I'm deeply traumatized by now. I'm afraid I'm "broken beyond repair". I don't know if I'll ever have children and the nice loving little family I've always dreamt of.

I know that right now my main concern is safety and survival, and preventing an unwanted pregnancy to the best of my abilities. But with the holidays approaching I'm afraid that dream will never come true.

How am I all of these at the same time? 🥲

Sending love back and to everyone in similar situations.

how it feels to be a kinnie with a job

[letthegrxxngirlgo]

Its not healthy for me here but I can’t survive on my own

I do love the holidays...but this time, for the first time in my life, I don't have any of the things that are associated or I personally associate with the holidays: I don't have a family, I don't have a home, I don't have hope, I don't have joy, I don't have friends, I don't have my fur baby, I don't have a Christmas tree...

I'm so sad about it all. It's so painful...I just hope that next year will be different. That I will have all those things that the little childlike me loves and will always love, or at least some of them. But hey, I'm allowing myself to dream big for a moment.

This will be definitely a topic for my next therapy session.

just some holiday reminders!!

It’s okay to have complicated feelings about the holidays (even if you used to really love them).

it’s okay to hide in the bathroom/take a step outside for some deep breaths.

it’s okay if events or activities meant to be ‘fun/recreational’ (like shopping, cookie decorating, etc) are stressful or tiring for you.

remember that it’s okay to rest 💜

it’s okay to set boundaries even around family (‘I don’t feel like talking about that right now, etc’)

you deserve to be hydrated, rested, and well fed 💜

There is no wrong way to feel about something! There can be so much shame around struggling in a season famous for being filled with ‘love and joy.’ You aren’t alone and you are loved 💜💜

Legally we cannot tell you to commit a crime because crime is illegal. But also Gotham has the highest crime rate in America. Just a fun tidbit for the day.
