I will not find out about my disability support application until around June 17. I was rejected for emergency assistance due to not currently having an income.
I live with chronic illness and disability and I am asking for help to make it to next month. $1200 CAD will help me secure rent, transportation, medicine, and other essentials.
I'm sorry to ask when things are difficult for just about everyone right now. Every bit helps. Thank you.

i need help. i'm a filipino lesbian with bipolar and adhd and i'm the breadwinner to a disabled household.
i'm getting laid off at work by the end of the month because i can't relocate, without any prospect yet. i don't think i'll be able to get the same salary.
quite honestly we have a lot of expenses for the month, but every dollar counts, since the conversion rate is high to philippine peso. any amount helps. my mother has a tumor close to her ear and needs to eat healthily.
priority expenses:
grocery - $275
2 bottles of concerta - $300
less priority expenses:
bills and rent - $200
1 psychiatric session - $50
2 therapy sessions - $60

i'm a writer so if you'd like to get some of my zines, purchase them here.
money problems have been making me so unstable these past weeks. i need all the help i can get. please help me, i'm so desperate.
Hi everyone! As you may know I’m a full time caregiver for my brother and that prevents me from working outside the home on a consistent basis. My brother receives disability but that unfortunately only covers 1/3 of our rent which leaves the rest of our household expenses such as food, utilities, internet service in my lap. Fortunately, I am able to babysit but the hours are inconsistent and recently the clients that I’ve come to depend on have been hit with their own financial struggles which leaves me in the lurch. Money is a huge source of anxiety for me as my bills are piling up faster than I am able to manage on my own. We have very little family to depend on or borrow from and even though that’s been the case for years, it’s even harder now with rising costs. We are hoping to take part in a program that would pay me to take care of my brother but we need a referral from my brothers doctor and the cost to travel to his appointment is mire than I am able to save on a weekly basis after groceries. Right now, my phone is turned off and I would like to switch providers but I would lose my number if I tried without service and I’d run the risk of delaying an already drawn out process with social services.
I’m thankful to all of you who have donated with times being as difficult as they are because I know my situation is not unique and I’m continuing my quest for reliable employment in the meantime but I want to try and get a few things paid off & prepare for the month ahead.
My goal is $1,200.
This would cover the final half of this month’s rent, our phones + internet, our pepco bill & to purchase menstrual supplies. I feel ashamed for asking because I wish I could handle it myself but I’ve exhausted all other options and the mental load has been whooping me lately. It feels as though we’re being priced out of life and it terrifies me. The fear of us losing our place keeps me up at night and as soon as our rent is paid off it’s time to pay again. It took years for us to receive what little government assistance we have just for me to now, not be able to work and make ends meet. We make a little progress and we get introduced to possible program just to get delayed smh! I’m grateful that we’ve made it thus far but I am stressed😭
Thank you for reading! pls share if you feel called to & give only if you can spare it. I appreciate it so much & pray its returned to you tenfold!! 🩷🩷🩷🩷🩷
For those who don't know me, my name's Asantewa. I'm a 28 year old graduate student (finally) nearing the end of their studies. I live with chronic illness and disability and have taken steps to apply for government support. It could be up to 3 months before I hear back. I have run out of financial aid and am presently unemployed, though I am actively searching and applying. I'm asking for help with rent, food, and other living expenses until things hopefully turn around.
I know that I'm not the only one facing difficult circumstances right now. Thank you for any consideration given, including reblogs and kind words of support. Every bit helps.

Things are difficult, but I am doing my best to keep going! I hope to hear back soon about my disability application and some roles I have applied for. In the mean time, reblogging and donating would be most appreciated. It's also my birthday next week 🎉 thank you as always for your support!
hi everyone, me again. so sorry to keep making posts like this, but i'm once again falling behind on my bills and floundering a bit. for a quick introduction - hi, i'm kels. i'm a nonbinary indonesian muslim who owes roughly $2000 to their bank! and i am struuuuuggling to pay it off. i'd like to get out of debt so i can move on with my life! for a better idea of my current situation and how much progress i've made, here are my previous posts.
i'm setting a tentative short-term goal of $650 to knock out some of my debt and cover essentials... i know that's a lot, and i'm in no way expecting it to be fully covered, but truly - anything helps! even $1/€1/£1. thank you to anyone who's shared or pitched in in the past. you've all helped so much and i'm so grateful!
no movement since. anything helps! i'm stretched thin until my paycheck next week. almost everything is going towards gas + bills + groceries 🥲 thank you all again for everyone's help so far!!! 🙇🏻♀️ every share & dono means so much.
redownloaded tumblr app so i can talk about yves minialbum which was a smash by the way like YAYYY much to smile about in my life
KAY so i decided to watch the mv first and not gonna lie i wasn't sure how to feel about the song, i think the chorus being a whisper kinda threw me off because the song is beautifully written and it feels very luscious, theres a lot of textures going on, so for the chorus to not have an actual melody was throwing me off a lot
anyways after i jumped into the minialbum and we have It to start us off and it's honestly a beautiful introduction and everything that follows up really makes me wish this was a full album like seeing only 5 tracks i wasn't really expecting much considering the previous projects but this is like.... they finally addressed my critiques but i'll get into that later. i like the lyrics i like the feeling of being able to move on and grow and to start anew and i really like the strings that come in at the chorus
then we get into HALO and i'm glad they finally incorporated a mainly instrumental track that makes sense in the album, i guess you could say DIM from the Viola project sorta kinda worked, Study from Soft Error kinda just felt tacked onto the project especially since "Do you feel it like i touch" was before it and there was no real follow up to that. but HALO??? this was very purposeful, i like that we're featuring Yves voice more whether it's her speaking melodically or singing. i didn't realize this song was the same song from the initial teaser so when it went straight into NAIL i literally gasped with her. i think my only critique is that i would have wanted a more dynamic song to bring some variation to this slayful beat but that transition was everything
now... as for NAIL hearing it in the project the song is like clicking for me a bit more, i still think it's beautifully arranged and it might take me a bit more time to get used to this whisper-speak chorus but it's fun, wish it was longer. oh right this song is my introduction to lolo and that little yves line was cute and i wish she was in the mv ngl. just to change things up since pinkpantheress or rebecca black couldn't appear in soap mv (likely due to schedules but its fine). and another thing i want to mention i like the word play on 네일 and 내일 in the chorus
anyways onto break it featuring lexie liu and let me just say DEAR!!! GOD!!!!! YES!!!!!! i really like that buzz from the synth that plays in the chorus its a satisfying texture, lexie's verse was excellent and i wish this song was longer too.
and lastly, onto birth.... notice how she ended floptms it's an excellent ending, it really is a full circle moment with this short project and arrrggfhhh i wish this was a full project so bad. idk i just really like how it ties in with the beginning and sonically its just a beautiful conclusion. it's left me with hope and looking forward to the next thing that yves will release
anyways i'm glad that yves finally has a cohesive project, i'd really like to see a full body of work someday. i'm glad that the english lyrics arent really all over the place unlike the past releases. it doesn't just feel like the songs are kinda just tacked on, there's a lot of intention and care from start to finish. i'm getting tired and i had a long day so i'll sleep now, thanks if you read this far, maybe i'll make gifs tomorrow
