This is just me getting things off my chest.
I am not in the best mindset and sorry if this is a rant.
The 9th of November will result in a change of my life.
I have been fighting financial problems for many years now, being a single parent and having 7 different illnesses. I battled so hard but the world is a cruel place and cruel people do cruel things.
My kids had been staying at their mothers for the last few months as I got my health sorted. I have been going through many tests and I couldn't keep up with my kids because of it.
I had an agreement with their mother that it was temporary.
Instead this evil bitch applied for full custody and despite her having a criminal record, despite me logging countless family services calls for her hitting me or my kids, they have basically awarded her custody because I am too sick.
This means my pay went from $668 a week down to $467 a week.
My rent is $400 a week. I have electricity bill that is $50 a week. I have gas bill that is $35 a week. I have an appliance I just purchased that's $50 a week repayment. My phone/internet bill is $30 a week.
My bills alone are $565.
Due to my fainting issues, I haven't been able to cook for myself as I have fallen down with hot pans and knives. I also struggle to shower because I am afraid to faint and crack my head open. I have spoken to countless services and social workers to have things done to help me but nothing has been done.
My caring girlfriend can probably reply here and attest to it.
Now my ex wife has done the most evil thing. She owes me $40,000 child support, but they can't do anything about it because shes a pensioner (she has schizophrenia due to meth use). Now because she wants the money from raising my kids she is basically sending me homeless for $100 more a fortnight. THIS IS PURE EVIL.
She also claimed the entire year that she has been raising them, which is a lie - but they approved it anyway. This means I owe the government $6000. I am financially ruined, I can't physically even move out and pack my things. I can't even get any finances cause im bankrupt cause my ex left me with 20k debts back in 2016.
She also did this on my birthday, can you imagine that? She did this to RUIN me because shes mentally ill and because she has drug and alcohol issues. Shes also addicted to gambling. She is getting $100 extra
I have documents to prove this, so it's not just me asking for money. My girlfriend has already asked to help and I don't want to be a burden anymore.
I think I can afford my rent but I have to somehow cover $400 more a week to cover for food, toiletries and essentials. I think this is the end for me, I can't afford food if I pay rent.
If anyone knows a job I could do from home online or anyone wants to help with food, I would appreciate it. I don't want money, but I would take an opportunity to work, help someone or earn enough to feed myself.
I lost my kids, I lost my cat and now I am about to lose my home.
I only have $500 in savings and rent is due next Thursday ($800) I pay fortnightly.
I sit here wondering what is the point of going on. I am so sick, I have been sick for years. I have lost everyone I love. Now I am gonna lose my home. My girlfriend who I love so much is currently in Canada. I would do anything to move there and live there but I can't. I can't afford it and I am probably too sick anyway. I have to wait 18 months for her to return but I now think I wont even be able to communicate with her or anyone as I might have to cut my internet off just to survive.
What can I do?
Do any of you have any idea what jobs I could do from home? Help me out maybe setting up something to cover these $400 a week? I don't want handouts but I am struggling to find hope.
I am really sorry for my rant.
