this year is a quarter of the last 3 years of absolute nightmare. quick background
i hear you -
domestic violence marriage 3 years - all things that define it, happened many times and continues
diagnosed with the only deadly form of endometriosis
found best friend after taking life
found brother after taking life
got my drivers license cut up and no access to “joint” account
illegally evicted because NC is the worst state for human rights ANYTHING all due to invisible disability discrimination and hate
denied temporary SSDI for three years because i’m not blind or in a wheelchair (verbatim) women’s diseases are swept under the rug time and time again
living in my minivan with my abuser and service dog since July
Series of unfortunate events but i have been doing nothing but staying persistent applying for ANY AND ALL assistance- jobs - anything. selling what i can on mercari and craigslist but no one wants my things. i just keep pushing, visualizing peace for my dog and i.
i’m native to this land. underrepresented & perpetual poverty but love for the land & faith in humanity remains.
