Things are getting ugly

Posted by Emme on December 29, 2003, at 19:00:39

- no job
- no irons in the fire (have been to depressed over the last few months to rattle enough cages).
- gawd only knows how long it'll take to find something if I do get the search back underway.
- few clues about what I want to do
- Am signing up to be a sub. It won't pay enough.
- halfway through cobra
- savings rapidly disappearing and that will be that.
- still have non-functional days
- profoundly unmotivated even though things are getting tight and I need to get moving
- landlord is very nasty and wants to raise rent a huge amount
- apartments are hard to come by around here and I don't have an income to satisfy a potential landlord
- Had to dump the equivalent of a month's rent and utilities into my poor little honda. Will need additional routine repair in 3,000 miles.
- About to start my new calendar year $1,000 deductible on out-of-network mental health (in network would be $5000) I can ill afford it.
- My pdoc is wonderful. I can't afford her. She's out of network and I get almost nothing back. I don't want to have to change doctors but...
- Therapist is wonderful. I can't afford her after the new year either.
- I should move because of the high rent, but not sure where to go and it would be destabilizing at the moment.
- My dad is being sweet and is helping me some. But even still, my situation is getting precarious.
- Moving in with family members not an option.
- I saw all these things coming...and somehow I didn't get it together and I am deeply ashamed.

Anyone who's read my "bad day" posts has seen most of this before. It's just reaching critical mass. Okay, it could be worse. No one is shooting at me. I don't have to support anyone but myself. But still. As I walk around, everything feels completely unreal and dreamlike. I keep hoping I'll wake up.

I feel backed into a corner and I think there is only one way out.
