It’s hard to believe when I say I’m not in the business of victimising myself, when I’m asking for money from strangers, but I’m really not. But, truth be told, I’m desperate and weary of battling my astrological 2H chiron, as the stargazers might say.
Life has presented its fair share of hurdles for me. Born as a sickly epileptic child in a country grappling with an insecure healthcare system, I faced adversity from the outset. Despite these obstacles, I defied expectations and successfully obtained a master’s degree through unwavering determination and hard work. From an early age, I embraced a strong work ethic, dedicating myself to various pursuits.I’m a survivor, and hope someone here helps me to keep surviving as I have done for the past ~25 years.
Now, health’s thrown a curveball at me – got hit with endometriosis and fibromyalgia diagnoses six months ago after nearly a decade of grappling with debilitating pain. Tried to soldier on as a Healthcare Assistant, but eventually, I had to throw in the towel. Pushed myself to the limit, but had to accept that it was time to step back completely.
Not to sound too Earl Hicky, but here I am, residing in a homeless hostel, managing with pot noodles and eggs boiled in a kettle. I’m grateful, as I know there are others facing even greater challenges. I understand the difficulties many are dealing with in the current times. Nonetheless, any amount of support would make a profound impact and be received with genuine gratitude. Hopefully, I can pay it forward in the near future.
