Under Construction - MHWA Retreat

What’s going on in your life? Any recent developments?

Other than becoming homeless? That's probably the biggest one. We have a safe place to go - a friend's AirBnB for no charge. Without that we'd be beyond screwed. My husband learned he can no longer drive with his CDL. He has a job lined up then that failed. He's now driving for Uber instead and that's helping.

I had a second interview for a job I'm hopeful to get. It's in real estate and the money is good so I'm happy about that. We'll see how it shakes out.

Oh yeah, and classes started last week. So I'm busy with that and listing just about everything we own on Craigslist. Moving sucks, do y'all know that? So much. Sucks so much!

How has your mental health been the past few weeks?
Really bad. I gave partial responsibility over to the state for my daughter in an effort to get her effective treatment. That hurts. And sucks. Then we learned Robert's career in trucking is over permanently. Then we became homeless. Now I hear we're headed for a recession. 2019 is going to suck worse than 2017 & 2018 combined. I didn't think that was possible. But stay positive! Must stay positive. Fuck that, I'm exhausted and disheartened and frustrated. And I wanna crawl in a hole and come out when the world is bright and shiny again.

Say a lot of prayers?

Forgive me for disappearing a little right now? My head space is so bad I don't want others to be victimized by it. I still you all!
