I’m a young Australian and I just got scammed

I’m a young Australian girl and I just got scammed out of $250 USD.I feel really horrible. It doesn’t seem like much, but I’m young and I hardly have anything and now I can’t afford my registration that is due in a few weeks. I feel so stupid. And I can’t work until school starts back, and my registration is due at a really bad time. I’m just sick of feeling stressed these last few days, and wish I could have that feeling lifted until I get back to work. I haven’t really got any savings to speak of yet. But I want to save. It’s just that I’ve had a lot of medical things I’ve been working through and haven’t been able to work full time yet. It’s hard to find a suitable way to earn money when you don’t have a lot of strength.I love giving to people myself, and I’ve often given generously when I couldn’t afford it. I want to be rich one day so I can help people. I’m smart, but I just have to work out how to use my brains.

I actually googled “how to beg online”. Which felt really weird. But I found this site. I just want my $250 back! Then I wouldn’t feel so bad, I don’t think. And I’ll be able to pay 3 months of rego for now.

I feel too embarrassed to explain what happened really, but I guess I owe it to whoever might potentially help me. I followed a youtube ad link to a site that said it would let me sign up for an automatic trading algorithm which was supposed to be really good and make you rich. Yeah right. Anyway, I got channeled through to some broker that I’ve never heard of. The guy said don’t worry about the algorithm. It only makes about 2% a week. I’ll trade for you and make more like 5-15% a week. He said he’d trade for a month for free. Anyway, now he wants me to put in $10,000 or more, and I found out that these guys are scammers who never give you your money back. Anyway, I don’t have that kind of money anyway lol. Bad go for him I guess. Too bad, how sad. But meanwhile, he took my last farthing! I know it’s hardly anything for a lot of people out there, but I haven’t got any money yet in life. I’m peeved. Anyway, if anyone wants to help me feel better, then feel free to help me get my rego money back. Otherwise I have to tell my Dad and get him to give me money and I don’t want to have to explain how I got scammed! I don’t wanna tell anyone. So there. Because it makes me feel stupid. The end.

Thanks for listening.

In Crisis: Family Fighting to Keep Their Home and Livelihood After Covid

Hi there,

I am reaching out to ask for your help. My family, including myself, my wife, and my four young boys, are currently in financial hardship. In addition to supporting my own family, I also help care for my disabled brother and my mother.

I know firsthand the challenges of growing up in poverty, as I lost my father at a young age and watched my mother struggle to make ends meet. I worked hard throughout my teens and twenties and was eventually able to start my own small business, which allowed me to provide for my family. I have always been a giving and generous person, and I made a point of donating and helping others whenever I could, especially those in need. However, the COVID-19 pandemic has had a devastating impact on my business, and we have struggled to make ends meet since then.

The current rental market in Australia makes it difficult to find affordable and suitable accommodation, and living expenses have increased dramatically. It is heartbreaking to see decades of hard work undone in a matter of months, and it is impossible for us to save enough money to relaunch my business with our current employment, which does not even provide enough to meet our weekly expenses. The stress and uncertainty of not being able to afford our basic needs has been overwhelming, and it is difficult to see a way out of this situation without help.

One of the ways that we have tried to cut costs is by withdrawing our boys from extracurricular activities. While this was a necessary decision, it has had a detrimental impact on their personality and behavior. They have lost the sense of structure and purpose that these activities provided, and we have all noticed a decline in their overall well-being.

We are in need of approximately $20,000 to cover rent and living expenses, and an additional $30,000 to restart my business. I am reaching out to ask for your help. If you have the means to donate, any amount would be greatly appreciated and would help us to afford our weekly rent and living expenses, as well as save for the future. I understand if you are unable to help at this time, but any contribution you can make would be deeply appreciated and would make a significant difference in our lives.

I am so grateful for the opportunity to reach out through this platform, and for the kindness and generosity of those who are considering making a donation. Thank you for considering our request, and for your help in supporting my family during this difficult time.

Sincerely,

A series of unfortunate events

Hello,

First I’d like to start by saying thank you to those who donate to people like myself in need and in absolute dire straights.  Your generosity and kindness is humbling and I hope to be able to do the same for someone one day by paying it forward.

Here is my story…

I am today 37 years old and have found myself awake for the first time in 20 years.  After being in a relationship for so long where I was abused mentally, physically, psychologically and emotionally.  With help from therapists and doctors I was able to remove myself from this relationship where in all honesty, in the throes of it all I had no idea I was abused.  Of course I understood physical abuse was wrong and feeling sad and lonely a lot of the time however I believed and had grown accustomed to this environment.  I now see how I was used and deceived for so long.

Here is the nitty gritty of it all.  My ex controlled all my finances, I worked my butt off for so long to only realise that I was funding ‘his’ lifestyle not ours.  The money he had told me had gone into savings for a deposit for a house, he had spent it all on his gambling and drug addiction.  He had stopped paying my loans around 1 year ago and my credit is now ruined. When I confronted him after a loan company showed up at my job I checked my other finances to see the sh1t storm in front of me.  After I went to him with the evidence he exploded and well the rest is too much to bare repeating the course of events.  End of story is I finally grew some courage and some self respect and left.  The credit ruined my ability to do my job as I worked admin in finance.  I lost my job 5 weeks ago.  I’m now unable to make arrangements for my bills and so I am begging for 11k to get my finances cleared to relieve some stresses off myself to be able to start looking for some work anywhere at this stage.  I will not be able to find a job paying me the 60k a year I was getting so the pay drop for whatever I can get will barely suffice to cover standard living costs here in NZ.

if you are able to help me I would greatly appreciate it https://paypal.me/SouthMade275?country.x=NZ&locale.x=en_US

I am hopeful but I understand there are many in the world who are worse off than me.  I am still however hopeful.

Thank you for your time and may you and yours have a wonderful Christmas and New Year.

Single mum once again!!

So where do I start after many years of mental and physical abuse I finally got out. I at last thought I had meet the one I loved him with all my heart and so did my family (which they’ve always hated me ex partners) I have 4 kids 16,14,12 and 9. I gave up everything to move in with my now ex a good house, job and family close by. He has just left me a week before Christmas and I actually don’t know how I can’t take it but me being me I just have to for my babies (who aren’t actually babies anymore) I now am stuck living in the middle of no where with my kids I can’t leave here as my children have been moved around enough and love it here on a farm and their school. My problem is he has up and left me and taken my car (was in his name, I know big mistake) I’m now left in the middle of nowhere with no car or anyway to get around. I’m not one to ever ask for help or handouts but I’m honestly just so lost and don’t know where to turn. I can’t even get a car loan or anything as in my last relationships they got things in my name and I was left with soo much debt and I’m still trying to dig my way out of that. If anyone can even send a few dollars I would be forever grateful. Every cent counts and my kids would also be forever grateful. I’m just so lost and don’t know what to do this is my last hope.

CAR FINANCING TROUBLES

 

Hello, my name is Liz Apisaloma and I am 28 years of age. I would like to firstly say thank you for taking the time to read about my struggles. I am a Stay At Home Mum to my only daughter of 15 months named Agnes. My partner works 40-50 hours a week to keep us afloat, but unfortunately when unplanned and unprepared we weren’t aware of the consequences and the lack of knowledge and preparations towards owning a car.

We work for a lovely family in the farm and they have provided us with a house that comes with the job and bought us a car as we were just starting work and could not afford a proper car as we were burrowing a friend’s car until we had worked enough and saved up enough to buy a new and reliable car.

This had all happened when I found out I was pregnant therefore made it impossible for us to save as I was in and out of work because I was really sick during my pregnancy. We live in a rural area so an SUV was suitable and safe for a child, my boss had kindly offered to buy us a car with their choice and for us not to worry. It was the most generous thing anyone has ever done for us so we were quite stoked and very blessed at that moment. They ended up purchasing a Mercedes SUV which was unreal as I’ve never driven or owned anything that expensive. We kindly tried to decline but they had already bought it off Trade Me. My heart was full and I was in awe as to how these strangers can treat us better than our own families and friends. With all that being said the car was okay to drive until a year later we started experiencing more and more problems with the car. We started having bills on top of bills and knowing very well how expensive they’re going to be.

Unfortunately as much as we want to ask our boss but we feel like we’re pushing our LUCK. They have done tremendously a lot for us.

We are currently paying off some of the previous jobs done on the car a few months ago which cost $2,000+ luckily the mechanic understood our situation as they have other regular customers using this payment plan of a minimum of $100 per week till debt is paid off.

Alas it still didn’t solve the ongoing problem with the engine, the work they’ve done the past few months didn’t solve what was wrong as the car was still having problems with power and accelerating up a hill. We live in a rural are so we’re faced with hills everytime we’re on the road. I had taken it in last week Monday only for them to finally find the problem which was the Turbo, as seen on the photo I have attached. To my surprise I never realized how much money it would cost but I knew one thing for sure that we’re just about reach pass our pockets to grab nothing but soil as we literally have nothing.

The cost for a Turbo part and an Alternator came around $5,000+ and the mechanic had asked for half the amount deposited in order to get the job rolling. We are stuck in mud now since we cannot get an approved loan because we both have bad credit and pastering families and friends are out of the options as we moved away from the toxicness of the city. Yet here we are feeling barricaded that we don’t know where else to turn to.

I am even ashamed to be writing this post because everyone knows me knows that I have never asked for handouts and I was always willing to give whenever I know I can give. Words could not express the gratitude I have for your kindness.

Therefore I kindly ask for your help please, one day when I’m working again I’ll be sure to return the favor to someone else who is in my shoes today.

Kindly click this link that will refer you to my PayPal. Please feel free contact me on my email or Instagram on my PayPal profile if you just want to confirm anything or say hello.👋

Please help me getting back on track

Hi,

My name is Mina and I live in Sydney NSW. This takes me a while to do and it is hard for me to put this into words of what has happened for the last few years.

Like others, everyone dream to be financial free, work from home, earn money while you sleep. All the Entrepreneur life style get me looking and searching for ‘E-commerce idea’.

In 2017 I’ve found this company called Online Biz Global and I’ve taken out the loan to join in their Elite package total of AU$45,000

Ended up is they just give me some leads to call and try selling the course. Of course it didn’t work and end up asking me to pay more money for more lead. Of course that company is not legit and now if you check the site it doesn’t exist anymore! I didn’t make any extra money to pay off that $45,000 and start falling off my payment with the renter. I started to take other loan from other lender to pay for my payment and I wish there was someone there to tell me “That is a wrong idea and worst idea ever”. I ended up falling behind all the payment and been ignoring all the calls/emails from them for years. Cause of that silly actions all those debt has grew interests and I am now in debt of AU$64,000 from two credit collectors and I can’t even make any payment to them.

I decided to get help from “Beyond Debt” company to help dealing with this situation and now I am on the way to paying off my debt. I’ve been paying them AU$231/week and it will takes me 6 years to pay it all off. Been living paycheck to paycheck and I can’t make any saving out of this situation. I have been paying it off and still have long way to go (Current balance is $51,864). I been teaching piano during the day and do food delivery at night time.

Any small amount of donation would be greatly appreciate as it is now most of my piano students are on Xmas holidays and I won’t have same amount of income for another month or so.

Thank you for taking your time reading this.

A sad story

My story so far.

Ok for starters I really don’t see this working but it’s worth a shot. Where to start though is the question. I will tell you a bit about myself to start with, I have 3 kids (living) and on and off partner (mother to all of my kids). I was once in a bad relationship (not the current one) where I was abused mentally and sometimes physically I was with this person when my mother died and couldn’t even go to her funeral.  this person also stabbed me 3 times and when I had enough and managed to finally leave I got left in huge amounts of debt which I have carried on for years now but always falling behind on them. I left the state I grew up in to get away from her and had to leave my 2 kids at that time which hurt so much. I went off the rails for a long time but eventually got myself together and came back to where I’m living now with my partner and one thing led to another and we ended up pregnant with twins so there was a lot of going to and from docs and all the things that come with twins. Fast forward a bit and I’m getting ready for my 3rd night shift at work and I get a call from the opposite side of the state 3 1/2 hour drive saying I have to get down to the hospital because there has been complications with the twins so I call work and say I won’t be in and race down. By the time I got there they were both born on the 24th of may but my little girl had bad heart issues and sadly passed away on the 30th of may I never knew I could feel this amount of pain and not die. The pain I felt from loosing my little angel I wouldn’t wish upon anyone ever. During all this happening I got lost into debt again because I was down there for over a month without work so I took out more loans to try and cover everything but it’s left me barley being able to go week to week just scrapping enough to get the kids everything they need and food on the table I’ve had debt collectors chasing me for a while but I’ve just tried to avoid them because I don’t like talking about all this. I’ve often thought about just ending it all I’d be lying if I said I didn’t but I would never leave my other babies. Honestly I’m just looking for help to get out of this cycle of loans and more loans. I’m not one to ask for money but I’m at the end of my rope and don’t know what else I can do. Just know if you do decide to help it’s not just me your helping it’s my whole family

Urgent help required to keep roof over my babies heads

Hello I’m a 37 year old mother of 4 and I live in Victoria Australia.. Ive never ever done this before but I’m requesting some urgent help of $3500 AUD to keep a roof over my children’s heads. And I intend to pay foward every cent I receive. in the future when I’m able to. . I’m usually the one helping everyone and my community. But now I’m in a pickle I can’t seem to find the help to fix it.  we are about to loose our rental property. Due to non payment of rent. Plain and simple I have no income I have exhausted all resources. Unfortunately 2 months ago I lost my job, my partner, and now about to loose the roof over our heads. I have spoken to real estate tried to figure a way to pay what I owe. I have applied for government payments which seems to be taking a very long time. And time I don’t have. To be honest I don’t really don’t know what will happen. All I can say is the universe really doesn’t seem to give my poor family a break. I have a son with one eye due to eye cancer, I have myself who just overcame breast cancer, I have a child with learning and behaviour issues. Then there was there father, who is no longer in the picture. I dont even have family I can turn. To, because.my mother suffers from a bad mental Illness is in and out of hospital, a father somewhere in the world i haven’t seen since I was 12. I have tried services community places. Everywhere around me is over exhausted and are not able to help. I have no choice left but to ask here for help, it’s not what I wanted to do I have no where to turn. We will be kicked on the street. I can’t do that to my children. And I definitely do not want to loose my children and end up in a bad cycle. I don’t drink, I don’t do drugs, never commited a crime, never even been in trouble with the law. I have always tried to teach my children to be loving and kind. And humble, they have no idea what is going on right now because I don’t know what to tell them I’m ashamed..Over the past years, I have helped so many people givin them a bed somewhere to stay always pay forward cook meals for strangers, invite strangers who have no where to go for Christmas over. And I wouldn’t change a thing I love who I am and how I raise my children but at this moment I feel empty lost, depressed sad  because I’ve done so much never asked for anything back from anyone I have helped over the years. I think you just reach that lost point when U suddenly hit a really bad time in your life. And you feel hopeless useless, wish you could do more wish, U sit and think what could U have done different, what choice left you to this point. I’m so so sorry I’m ranting on on. I just don’t know but I’m begging anyone Please please anyone out there that can lend me a hand in keeping my rental. I know it’s alot to ask especially the amount. But I have no idea where to go. I’m am happy to show the proof of my rental arrears. I’m also happy if it can be done as I don’t know if it can but happy for any money to be paid directly to the real estate company. If that can even work. Thank you everyone for taking the time to read…. PayPal.  https://www.paypal.me/breebez

Financial Assistance

At 17 my mother and stepfather decided to move away without me. I was told to find somewhere to live as they were no longer supporting me. I began working everyday and out of furthering my education after high school. Now after a year I have started university as a full time student, and struggling again. I am struggling to afford to maintain my car, which is my only way to work and school, and also to pay my rent. I am appreciative of any assistance small or large.

My Bumpy Journey

Hi,

My name is Lowana I am a 27 year old single mum to a beautiful handsome 3 year old boy, I’ve came across this site in hopes of getting some help from you today. My life has been turned upside down since I had my son my pregnancy was such a blessing since I had been told I couldn’t have babies due to have a cancerous tumour on my ovaries but one day it happened i was going to be a mum. I made sure I was careful throughout my pregnancy ate the right things did my exercises never had a fall never did I smoke nor drank while I was pregnant with my baby. I awoke one morning 2 months before my son was due I thought it was braxter hicks. That wasn’t the case unfortunately it took professionals hours to figure out what was wrong as I wasn’t dialed or had any signs of my water breaking. After a few hours one nurse had figured out that the heart beat that was being monitored was mine not my sons in fact it was mine this was then an emergency once they had found the heart beat of my child’s they had to get him out as soon as possible. My son came out not breathing they had revived him though this had happened 3 times that day. My son was flown to another hospital as he had lost a lot of oxygen to his brain. It was such a traumatic experience I’m crying even writing this, I was told my son would not survive as he had serve HIE and that treatment was needed to try and at least reduce the risk of losing my first child. Which I agreed to. Was a difficult week my son had multiple mri scans and proceeded with treatment his alive today but has a few disabilities. We have appointments in and out of the hospital once to twice a month, unfortunately my car has completely decided to give up on us and it has been a real struggle saving for another car as I had to fill out what I had to travel by public transport to Ubers and taxi fares. I was working part time but I had to stop unfortunately as the only support network I had was my mum and she just recently underwent a brain surgery as I had walked in and saw her having guys called for help and we had found out she had a infection on the brain. So right now I am caring for my son as well as for my mother. If you would like to give me a helping hand any kind of donation would be very appreciated to go towards a vehicle. I thank you in advance for taking the time to look at my post, My PayPal link is below

Disabled female needs help while waiting for Total and Permanent Disability Insurance Payout

Hello, my name is Amey from Australia. This has taken me two weeks to have the courage to ask for help, I find it so hard to ask anyone for help.

I am a Single 44 year old female and was not born with the opportunity to be a mum and can not fall pregnant. I love kids and was born to be a mother so I have rescued dogs all my life and my current rescue dog is my companion and best friend.

I am an only child and don’t have any contact with my parents, they gave me a life of neglect, physical and mental trauma with invisible scars that still affect my ability to function and feel safe to this day.

I have Complex Post Traumatic Stress Disorder and Conversion Disorder which is my bodies response to the endless trauma I have had all my life – it affects me without any warning – I can become completely paralysed on my life side mimicking a stroke, loose all strength in my muscles and loose the ability to speak. I would not wish this upon anyone.  

I am On a Disability Pension, I receive funding from the National Disability Insurance Scheme in Australia where I receive therapy with a Clinical Trauma Psychologist, a Mental Health Occupational Therapist, a Psychosocial Recovery Coach and Carers to help me with my day to day life.

I don’t have many friends as I have trust/abandonment issues. My psychologist says I am a very empathetic person so I get taken advantage of very easily so I feel it’s safer for me to stick to myself. I also have a  long list of physical health issues and disabilities.

I didn’t realise I had been paying for Total and Permanent Disability Insurance until my my Psychiatrist asked  me to bring in my Annual Superannuation Statement to an appointment with him. We discovered I have been paying TPD Insurance  for 23 years so my Psychiatrist, Psychologist and Doctor all supported that I could never work again and found me a good lawyer with a no win no fee arrangement.

The claim has been ongoing for 13 months now and typically most claims are paid in 6 months. My Lawyer has advised me that my  super fund I pay my TPD insurance too have breached 17 of their regulations with my Claim and my lawyer will be suing them for damages/losses/trauma I have endured due to their negligence once my TPD Claim has been paid.

I have been living off my superannuation funds for the past 8 years and have now depleted  all available funds that have kept me afloat until now.

I am unable to get a loan for the amount of money I require as I am on a low income Dr disability pension. I am so close to loosing my home I have rented for the past 7 years, can not pay for the medical specialists I need to see or any of my basic living expenses and bills merely to survive.

My TPD Claim is expected to be paid in 3 months, until then I have 25% of the money I need to keep me afloat from my disability pension. I don’t want your pity, I want you to know I’m a fighter and I never give up though life has been a constant war for me and I’ve climbed millions of mountains to fight for my survival.

I have attached a  letter from my Lawyer and my Clinical Trauma Psychologist to confirm my need for immediate financial help is  bonafide. When my Claim is approved, as I am an extremely grateful person despite my suffering and I am an extremely empathetic individual. I feel a great sense of purpose in helping others truly in need whenever I can, so you can be assured your donation of help – I will pay it forward to others in need as I am right now.

If you have read this far, I appreciate your time and consideration as to wether you would like to help me. I have bared my soul and shared my story with you in as brief yet informed way as I possibly could.

This has been so difficult for me to do, though I have at least conquered my fear and put myself out there seeking the help I truly need to survive the next 3 months and for you to decide what you will do next.

I am truly grateful for any donation you may have the capacity to give. My goal/need is large and I know it is a very tall ask and order to be able to achieve this. So you are clear, it is 10,000 to cover me for the next 3 months until my Claim is paid.

If you would like to help, please make your donation to my PayPal PayPal.me link https://www.paypal.com/paypalme/disabledhopefulAUS?v=1&utm_source=unp&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=RT000269&utm_unptid=76451ce8-33ea-11ed-a274-3cfdfeef729c&ppid=RT000269&cnac=AU&rsta=en_AU%28en-AU%29&cust=QGHR8ML54UTTA&unptid=76451ce8-33ea-11ed-a274-3cfdfeef729c&calc=f387359a64206&unp_tpcid=ppme-social-user-profile-created&page=main%3Aemail%3ART000269&pgrp=main%3Aemail&e=cl&mchn=em&s=ci&mail=sys&appVersion=1.112.0&xt=104038%2C127631

My sister was my rock, up until my best mate my nephew, our lives took a turn for the wrose that day, the wrose day of our lives when my nephew didn’t wake up, I’ll never forget that cry, a mother cry, a piece of my sister died that day. Her and her partner did there best to heal and stay strong for her other kids I did my best to support her my life was back on track (helping other I forgot about me), I got a home things back on track for me and my kids. until recently last month (July, 2022) my life is wrose then before.

I found myself in relationship that turn very violent, I left my home, I lost my job, every myself and my kids own, currently my kids are in care of the dad as I am homeless, I’m injured, I don’t have friends or support from family, apart from my sister (things got wrose for her to), I’m still looking for a job and a home slowing lossing hope nothing is working I failed my children and ashamed to ask for help it’s so hard ATM. My sister did everything she could I should be there for her if things couldn’t get wrose it did for her at the time I was going throw this,

My sister …she lost her partner… Her partner had a accident and sadly died I can’t even find the word I feel her being twin I lost her she’s barely hanging in there… The the shock of it people took advantage of her started taking belongings what was ment to be sold to cover cost of he’s funeral she never got the money for I did the best I could to help pay we both borrow money that we can’t afford to pay back to cover the cost, her landlord who was ment to be her partner mate turned on her, her rent was all paid up for the year some how she lost her rental and everything she owned including her son’s that passed away memories her kids are in the care of there father as she is homeless to.

We both are doing our best, please help and donate the favour will be returned in the future for who ever is in need I promise that, but at lease for her no one should ever go throw what she is

Hard working solo mummy

Hi! I am new here, so please bare with me.

A little bit about myself. I am 36 years old and I have 4 wonderful children. I work as a homelessness prevention officer, in a small town in NSW. I moved to Australia as a single mum with three children, with nothing more than two suitcases and a dream of changing our future for my children. In the 10 years we have been here, I have struggled through homelessness, DV, sickness, we have gone without food, without clothes, without windows in my car. I became a mum at 16, with no qualifications, no work experience, and once we settled in Australia I just knew that I had to make this work. I had to give my children a chance at life that I never had. A childhood I never had. To say the first four years were the hardest of my entire life is not an understatement. Some days, I couldn’t afford the $0.80 for a loaf of bread from Coles. But I am stubborn, and I refused to give up. I walked the streets asking every single shop for a job, until I found one. That gave me a little income, and some work experience. From there, I applied and successfully secured a traineeship in Disability. I struggled through for 6 months, and the day I graduated I was ecstatic. I was so proud of myself. I gradually moved my way up and moved to a new town, where I secured two jobs. My children at the time were 2, 6 and 9. I would work 8.30 – 3.30 at a day program, then rush to my next job at 3.40 to do after school care for children with a disability, then rush to pick up my eldest two who would catch the bus home and have to stay on their own until I finished my second job, then go and pick up my youngest from childcare, often just as they were closing up. Between this, I would work as a cleaner at my children’s school twice a week in leiu of school fees. Weekends were spent with my children, enjoying our family time. I eventually met my now ex husband, and together we had my fourth and final child. Sadly, just before Christmas last year, for the final time, we separated. It has been such a tough time for myself and my children. But I refuse to allow myself to fall into despair, because I have fought so hard to provide my family with love, stability, and success. I am often bewildered at the woman I have become, on my own, with no family nor friends to support me along the way. It has been 10 long years since I have hugged either of my parents. It has been 10 years since I have felt the warmth of my families embrace. 10 years since I could sit in the sun with my dad in the morning and chat about life, 10 years since I’ve been able to hold my mums hand. I miss my family so incredibly much, it is a physical ache in my heart. But, I do this for my children.

My baby, miss 7, has never met her grandparents. There is a photo of me and my parents that sits on my shelf, and when she was younger she used to prop it up on the table as she was eating breakfast and pretend she was eating with nana and grandad. It broke my heart. She often takes the photo down now amd whispers in her sweet little voice “Hi, grandad… I love you so much.”

My mum is very unwell. She has lived a life of heartache and struggle. She was always the one who would give her last two dollars to an old lady in the bakery who was short for a cake. The one who would stop the car to pat the horses on the side of the road. The one who would sit up all night making me costumes for book parade, sewing every individual sequin onto a mermaid tail she had made for me. But mentally, she was very unwell. She deteriorated badly and in turn, we lived a hard life of uncertainty and fear. I am a strong, outspoken advocate for mental health sufferers, and despite the heartache I’ve experienced, I love my mum to bits.

I could write for an eternity. In fact, I have begun penning a book, of my insane life story. One day, I am determined to have my story published, because I know without a doubt that I have been given life experiences so I can help others.

But my greatest wish…. my greatest wish is to br able to pay for my parents to come over here, before my mum passes away. I want my mummy amd my daddy to meet my children, to dote on them, and I want to spoil them with love and affection and hugs that I’ve been unable to do for the last 10 years.

I cannot return to my home land. I escaped horrific DV, told by the police and child services that they simply could not keep us safe and unless I did something drastic to protect my children, they would be removed from my care. So without hesitation, I hopped on a plane, with those two suitcases, wept in my dads arms as I said my goodbyes, and here I am today, speaking from my heart. So, as much as I would love to hop on a plane and take my babies home to see my parents, I just can’t.

People take their loved ones for granted. My heart simply aches seeing other women with their mums, enjoying a coffee together in the sun, shopping at stores together, or just enjoying each other’s company. I know that my mummy’s time is limited, and I fear that soon, it will be too late. If I had the funds, I would fly my parents over here to spend a week with us, and relish every single moment that we get to spend together. Financially, for me and my family, it is not feasible to do this without help.

So I ask here, with love and gratitude, for someone to please, please help me with my wish. No matter how old you are, a hug from your dad will never be too much.

Thank you, if you have made it through to here.

It’s @ that point

This is a new one so I dont know where to begin/ what to ask.

Very brief backstory, best not to bore.

Grew up with a single mum ~ amazing, but from around 8 however we were involved in a DV situation that lasted until I was around 17 / ongoing because do they really leave you alone ah

In and out of home at around 15 because eww but limited family/friends/safe zones at certain living locations wcud

Been working since I could legally at 14 and paying bills since then.

My mother got out when I was at the age of 17 but it was still a rough few years for her and my siblings. At this point I was well out of home however there were still times where I was needed because family. I lost a job due to needing to be their full time carer while she was in hospital (I tried to change to school/weekend hours but they were not satisfied with that need of mine)

Since 19 I’ve managed to gain employment working with the community and being able to help people gain their own employment also helping where I can with people through their own struggles.

But f*** life is hard isn’t it. I’m 26 now, been working these last 7 years paying off my debt I created when I was younger and some bloody how managed to get clean.

But again, I’m 26 and my debt is still just too much, my car left is 7000$ but interest keeps getting me. There’s OLD credit cards, well cancelled but overdue still because I was of course young and dumb and WHY SO MUCH, random debt collectors on missed bills from idek when. And just housing.

The only reason interest hasn’t hit harder the last 4 months is because I was evicted due to the rental crisis and the owner needing to move back home. I haven’t been able to find a place yet so I am replacing my rent money for bill money which is pushing some along better.

But if I did find a house I still can’t afford to pay the down fees to rent currently. It’s a cycle. I try to save but my mental health is so s*** at the moment I had to go part time to avoid taking extra time off of work and potentially loosing my job.

My younger brother died last year and it hit so hard, the year anniversary just went and it was harder than expected.

However since he died, I also lost 3 other family members within 6 months. I feel I can’t even mourn them properly because the loss of a sibling out ways and how sh*t is that. So that makes me feel like a piece of poop.

My last work pay was very low as it was his anniversary and then I had python emergency. I lost my runt. My heart is broken. But I am also worried about my other babies. I’ve spent all my money &ZIP (that I haven’t touched forever to try pay it off ahahaha) on seeing the cause and an appointment to check my others. However one python appointment is $153 and that’s without blood work. So far the next smallest seems okay so one vet visit should be okay, but it just would have been nice to be able to afford whatever to get them all checked, just in case.

I also want land one day of my own where I can create an animal rescue, that is my absolute dream, but at this point in time is seems like that isn’t going to be realistic.

I’ve been made redundant this month as well but I’m sure I’ll find something soon but it’s still an extra huge worry.

Life is a fun one isn’t it. I’ve tried turning some hobbies into some extra cash but it just goes to bills and when living pay to pay having some hobbies left is nice too. I don’t have the environment to set up a hobby into a business because that’s also crossed my mind, a bank wouldn’t give me a loan to start because well it takes years to get your score better and I’m still missing some bills so it’s not going up anytime soon.

Thanks for your time, pretty sure I turned into a bore
