  1. Ok, I can't even begin to understand how you must be feeling.  That has to be a terrifying and lonely situation you are in but just maybe this is your chance to turn things around.  To start fresh.  You don't have to have fascinating things to talk about to someone just smile and say HI.  You never know where it might take you.  Maybe it's time to pack up and leave Michigan.  Contact the city where you live and find out what sort of help they can supply you with.  Hang in there!


  2. My heart goes out to you and I have great sympathy for your cause.

    A few months ago I was flat broke too.  Not quite as badly as you.  A friend came over to my house and I told her about my financial problems.  

    Her response was quite surprising.  She told me that she has a "money tree" and every time she needs money, she just shakes it and money comes to her.

    Of course she was talking symbolically but I knew that if I BELIEVED I had a money tree, a source for all the good in my life, I could go discover it for myself.

    Well, here it is August, and money is coming my way.  A friend owed me some money and gave me $500.  Another asked me to help them with a project and they are paying me quite a bit.

    How did this all happen?  I believed in the power of the Almighty to see me through some tough times.  Most of all, I believed in my own ability to make something happen so I discovered my money tree inside my own heart and mind.  I started to shake it just like a plum tree.  Amazingly, good things are coming my way because I discovered the source of my supply - some people call it God.  I do.

    No matter how hopeless it seems, you have to change your thinking and start believing in a positive outcome to your predicament.

    You are a child of the universe and believe me, you are loved by the very Creation that created you.

    If this sounds too religious, I don't mean to sound this way.  What I am saying here is that there is always hope even in the darkest of times.  

    Reach out to that place in you that loves beauty.  When you go to sleep tonight, and all the nights to come, pray for abundance, for happiness, for health and all the good things in life.

    I PROMISE YOU.  You will be surprised when the good starts coming your way.  Try it, what do you have to lose?

    If you can, please print this message and read it from time to time.  You are loved by Creation.  Feel it in your heart and your life will turn around.

    Go find your money tree and shake it.  Amazing what happens.

    Good Luck

  3. Wow, you do need someone to talk to , this to shall pass you cant stay like this for ever, where do you live can you go to the employment office? Is there any job placements out there you can start there? what do you know what have you done b4 what sort of jobs ? some one you went to school with that you grew up with that knows you ? can you contact them ?  

  4. All I can say is that you need a friend. and if your willing, i'll be one. this is hatcreeper101 on her moms account so message me on that account and ill talk to yaaa. immmmmm 13. so i might be too young. but hey ya never knowww. [:

    IM reallyyyyy sorry by the way.

  5. things happen dont worry your going to be okay things like this happends all the time i think its time to move to a different state

  6. let me tell you, i know your situation, i am a student living in a city where i dont have any family or friends, and i hate the people, i have to work to pay for school, and usually the jobs are crappy. i am currently unemployed and i need to pay off a loan in order to go back to school. is there any way you can collect unemployment? if you were laid off, i think you may be entitled to it. also have you tried going to your labor dept for help, in texas we have the texas workforce commision and they will help you find a job. listen you are here on this earth because God wants you to be, and the minute he decides he doesnt want you on earth he will take you off it, so stop the thoughts of dying. you are here for a reason, please believe that, because i am just recovering from feeling the same way you do. i am not like the people in my city so i dont have any friends, and when i do meet people i like, something happens to mess it up. anyways, what i realized is finishing school is whats important, not who likes me. first focus on getting work, i know you are trying just push yourself even harder, and pray, i know you will find something, also see if you can get some assistance from your state, like housing assistance food stamps whatever you need. then focus on staying mentally healthy, dont do things that dont benefit you, for me its sleeping the day away because i'm depressed, which makes me even more depressed. tell yourself, that you know that you are a good person, and you know you deserve a better life, someday people will be able to see that. focus on whatever motivates you. try excersing or finding a healthy way of getting rid of your frustrations, even if that means punching a pillow, as long as you get it out. when you are in a position to ,then you can learn to socialize, you may have nothing to talk about because you work and go to school and dont get to do much, that will change. talk about something you saw on tv, or your favorite celebrity or something universal, that lots of people can relate to. and I will talk about God, because God helps those who help themselves, and when i have needed help i have to show that i want what i'm asking God for ,and that i appreciate it. i'm not saying you dont do that, but sometimes we just need that extra push. And i believe that we go through things in order to help other people, if i hadnt gone through things and didnt believe in God i wouldn't have spent time answering your question. and dont be afraid to ask people for help. good luck and i will pray for you.

    try craigslist they sometimes list job opportunities a girl mentioned earlier to advertise that you need a job, you can advertise your skills for free on craigslist.

    and i understand hat you mean about financial aid, i am 24 and can just now qualify as a dependent, tyr and do some research and find the right person to tlak to at your school about not receiving help from your parents, i'm sure you have already asked but maybe try a different route, or try writing a letter to the dean of your school or someone high up, letting them know your situation with your parents.

  7. you are important to me. look if you can get to texas there are so many jobs down here and there is school down here you have to get a job pull yourself up and get moving sometimes life is hard but htis isok you can do it that is what you say. if you are having hard time get to docto and i am sure there are free clinics for all to use try one and get help. take care pray and get moving you can work a job for 6 or 7 and then move on and get more work. its just keep looking for help then if you can get out of michigan. i am from there and i love the palcea nd plan to move back soemday but you need to get moving and find a good job and schooling take care where are your parents and stuff it seems theyw ould lhelp you we all love you remember that dont' snuff your life out cause of this its not worth it.

  8. I wish I could reach out and give you a hug!

    I'm so sorry for how things are for you right now. I won't talk to you about god. I'm upset w him right now, too, because of things in my life. I don't really know what to say to you. Except to try and see the light at the end of the tunnel. Suicide is not the answer. You're younger than 24, you have alot to live for. Look towards the future and see where you want to be in 10 yrs or so from now.

    Ok, so you're 'boring, quiet and don't talk much'. Sounds to me like you're depressed.  Get out of your comfort zone and meet a few people. It may help to make you feel better. Everyone needs friends!

    If you need to talk, you can always email me!

  9. dont kill yourself that is a way to get into h**l instead why dont you go to your local hospital and tell them about this.

    when life gets tough you cant quit

  10. Call your local Mental Health Mental Retardation Center (MHMR),  tell them your plight.  They can probably get you some referals for your mental health.  Plus other resources for rent, food, etc.

    I was in the same boat recently, and God pulled me out if it.  He will do the same for you, I promise.

  11. kill your parents...

    they did this to you so get revenge.

  12. I am so sorry about what you are going through.  It is hard losing a job and being without money.  Suicide is not the answer.  Things do get better but it is hard to believe that unless a person has been through many hard times before.

    Here is a suicide hotline link.  I have called them before and they are very nice.

    http://suicidehotlines.com/

  13. Okay trust me, it will get better.  I have been in the same situation and some even worse when I was growing up.  We were very poor, my mom was an abusive alcoholic.  Now I live in a state without any close family or friends.  You say you go to church then why don't you try to talk to someone there, they are usually more than willing to help.  You don't have to be 24 to get financial aid, who told you that??  Go to your city hall and ask to meet with the treasurer, they usually have money set aside to help people in financial distress who are about to lose their home.  You could also go to a temporary agency or staffing service and sign up with them.  Don't stop trying, I know it's hard, but you can get through it.  Maybe go around and just fill out applications everywhere or go to the unemployment office.  Put an ad in the paper that you are seeking a job cleaning, babysitting, chores, errands, whatever, as long as it pays something.  Put an ad out for a roomate or look for someone looking for a roomate.  You can do it.

  14. Welcome to the club...First of all it is bad but lets pretend that it's not and its something that will get fixed soon...DON'T let the situation control your mind or the outcome, but let your mind navigate you into the right direction...and the only way to do this is by thinking positive and being optimistic no matter what, because your lowest point in your life can always go lower if you let it.... Go find a low paying job if it comes down to it, apply for welfare or unemployment, go to community college (they help you with grants for school and books) just take the classes you can afford for now.  Reach out to any family member for a temporary place to stay... Don't let this set back be the resulting failure of the rest of your life, it might be uncomfortable but you can overcome this....this is what life is, we will always have friction, but every time we over come this friction, the obsticles become less of set back and more like a healthy challenge that remind us the we are alive...Good luck

  15. I'm so sorry to hear that things have been so difficult for you latley.  Sometimes life can seem overwhelming, I know..it's hard to deal, but you definitley DO NOT want to give up!  The things that are hurting you today, will likley NOT be bothering you a year from now.  

    I want you to get off yahoo answers and call 1800-999-9999.  That is the number to covenant house's help line.  It is confidential, free, and there are people there who understand what you are going through and who can help you get through this.

    Give yourself a chance to live, YOU ARE WORTH IT!!!  

  16. First of all you do not have to be 24 to get Financial Aid.  How do you think all of these 17 year olds just out of high school are affording college?  Not everyone's parents can afford to send their children.  Apply for the MAP award and Pell Grant.  You can also take student loans, not necessarily requiring a co-signer.

    Second, you should go apply to a fast food place if you are really as broke as you say you are.  It may suck to have once hada  job and now be flippin' burgers, but if it keeps a roof over your head, who cares?  I would also question why if you were laid off you are not receiving some form of compensation from your former employer.

    Third, if it is as bad as you say it is, I would start applying outside the small radius that you live in.  Branch out.  If you have no family or friends and are in danger of losing your apartment then you have nothing holding you to Michigan.

    Fourth, if all else fails consider joining the military.  It will give you money for school once you are done, and in the meantime food in your belly and a place to rest your head at night.  And once again, if you have nothing keeping you in MI, why not?

    EDIT: tell your parents not to claim you on income tax... as soon as you are not claimed as their dependent you qualify for Financial Aid on your own.

  17. you've gotta fight through it

    lots of people go through bad patches in life. you're still young, you've got a long life ahead of you.

    keep working towards finding a job. you'll be really proud of yourself once you've pulled yourself out of this situation you're in. once you a get a job (your first priority), and continue going to school, consider going out to clubs or local social hot spots, and just try meeting people. in class, try reaching out and talking, just simple stuff, doesn't have to be deep conversations.

    you're bound to make friends, you seem like a pretty good person

    sorry i'm terrible at advice but I hate to see someone in your situation and contemplating suicide

    suicide is never the answer, and you'd be surprised at how many people care about you and would really miss you if you're gone

    good luck and I hope things improve for you

  18. It may seem like things are as bad as they can get, but they will get better.  I know you don't believe me, but my family and I have went through hard times recently.  We were broke because of a lay off, lost our home, car, etc. (and we have 3 kids!).  But, guess what!  Things have gotten a lot better.  My husband has found a new job.  We found a place to live, and we are getting a new car in a couple of weeks.  So, don't give up.  Your life has purpose.  And I am sure there are people out there who care about you.  Go out there and take any job you can find.  Talk to your landlord and tell them what is going on.  If you have to take a little while from school until you are 24, then that is what you will have to do.  You can always go back.  Just don't give up!  That is the easy way out.  Life is not always fair, but sometimes it can give you nice surprises.
