Life and trauma

I know you're going to hate me saying it, but you probably need to call again tomorrow and chase this up!  It sucks that you have to, i know.  I have 2 people i need to email because I haven't heard back and i've been putting it off for a week so far.  So I do know i'm probably the last person to suggest this to you.  But if I only suggested things I would do myself, I would hardly ever suggest a thing and what would i fill my responses with? 😂

Today as okay for me.  Sunday was really tough so I just had a really quiet day today and that has helped so i'm catching up on posts now before I head off to bed.

@MJG017 guess we will see what happens. I did ring today but hung up when it went to the answering machine. 

I'm just sick of trying to get help from places that either can't help or don't even bother to make contact when they say they will. 

Sorry Sunday was hard for you but I'm glad you took time for yourself. I need to sleep but my brain won't switch off.

@Former-Member 

Yeah, I wouldn't trust them to get back to me after leaving a message either.  Plus I hate leaving messages.  I panic and think I sound like an idiot!  I totally understand you being beyond frustrated with these places, but sadly at the moment you do need their help so your basically at their mercy.  No, it definitely should be this hard but for now, it's a problem for tomorrow.  I hope you can quieten the brain and get some sleep.

@MJG017 it's hard enough to make phone calls let alone having to deal with an answering machine. I already know this place can't help with housing, it was more a hope that they could advocate for me. But really what's the point, I've already got the letter from the person that's willing to advocate for me, I'll submit that on Wednesday after the inspection. 

Tomorrow i have to dust, vacuum and mop the house. Also have to somehow find the energy to get to the shops. 

My brain is a complete mess. I need hugs and that reassurance that things are going to be ok, but I know that it's not and that scares me. There's so much at stake, more than anyone here knows.

@Former-Member 

Well I sincerely hope that letter is enough and you have some luck.  I know it must be such a difficult position to be in and yes, I don't know everything, but even with what I do, the uncertainty and the looming deadline must be incredibly stressful.

All I can do is send you some virtual hugs and hope with you that something will work out very soon for you. 🤗🤗

Thanks @MJG017 ❤️. 

I'm going to try to sleep, hope to chat to you tomorrow. Night. 

[MJG017]

Good night @Former-Member.  Chat to you tomorrow.

@MJG017 so that place just rang and they said that they can't help me and they aren't even sure why housing sa told me to contact them. They said i should just pay the increased rent cos there's no other options, i said it's not even physically possible for me to cover the extra amount.

I just can't even deal with this anymore, I've been let down by every service I've made contact with. 

Someone hold that hope and light for me please cos right now I'm surrounded by darkness and really only see one way out 😞.

Holding that hope for you @Former-Member I'm so sorry you keep running into these dead ends

[Former-Member]

Thanks @Ru-bee . I've got my music blasting and I'm cleaning for the inspection tomorrow. I know when I'm done and I stop that's when things are going to be really bad.
