I’m going to lose my mind. I’m in OHIO

Our foodstamps went from $570 to $24. have been dealing with a ton of medical issues for the past year and it’s gotten to the point I had to apply for disability and even standing and sitting for more than 3 hours I feel dizzy and or pass out. I have inappropriate sinus tachycardia and svts making my heart randomly go from normal to 200s out of nowhere, even sleeping. I’ve passed out so many times and it causes me to not hold down a job. My provider filled out the exemption and put all of the medication I am on along with the symptoms and they still denied me. They said because she checked “no” on a question that makes it seem like unless I’m dying I can work. One little box. Food stamps is the only thing I could actually count on for this time being until my disability gets approved. I’ve applied to multiple jobs that let you sit down but even then it’s hard for me because I have to lay down constantly throughout the day. My son is 14 so I guess that’s the only reason we are getting the $24???? They told me I have to reapply and either work the 80 hours or have my other doctor fill another exemption out. It could take up to 30 days for them to approve it and they don’t do expedited food stamps since we do get $24. The food banks in my area you wait at for at least five hours because it’s so crowded and they rarely have anything left.

Update: my cardiologist is going to just go ahead and write a letter on his letterhead stating I’m absolutely not able to work due to my disabling palpitations and dizziness and that he is uncertain how long it will last.

Venmo was/is offering $20 back on $20 purchases if you sign up for a debit card and use it. Well, I did and have gotten no money back nor anything saying anything else regarding this. They don’t answer the phone when I call. Has anyone else had this offer and gotten their money?

I have been on every med under the sun, and none have given me results like this medication. I originally got prescribed this for water retention and high blood pressure. My cardiologist said it should help with my skin and facial hair etc as well. I was nervous because diuretics normally make me feel awful. Yall. I could cry at how much more confident I feel. Before my skin was just dry and red and bumpy, my hands and feet and legs were so swollen I never noticed how bad until I started this and it started working. If you get puffy from pcos and have skin issues, ask your doctor about this! I’m amazed and feel so much more confident. I even have noticed in my forearms.

For everyone asking I am on 25mg twice a day and have been on it a little over a month! Side effects were dizziness at first but quickly went away.

They called and asked if I was having problems with the app because I haven’t scheduled a block yet since signing up. I told them no, I haven’t had any issues, I’m just not working 3.5h for $54!!!! Which would probably be $20 in reality after gas!!!! They’re out of their minds!!!

Those getting mad thinking I’m making this up are really sad. If you’re on Reddit that much you think a normal person is going to make a story up to post on the AMAZON FLEX sub are wild. I’ve never heard of a company doing this and thought it was random so I posted. Crazy.

Home is foreclosure and I’ve done everything in my power to stop it. Zero resources. Everyone I’ve been given is out of funds or has years on a waitlist. I’ve filed motion after motion, their lawyers did me dirty af everytime I would try to call and make a payment and wait months to call me back. Idk what we’re going to do. The housing list is insane here and I’m going to lose everything I worked so hard for and so will my kids. This is an HOA foreclosure. I really just want to die at this point. Even the shelters here are full.

Weapon of choice?

Dear god,

Please let me poop before I take a trip to the ER.

I was supposed to have a colonoscopy months ago and never did- had left over bottles of Clenpic and said f it and just downed one. Sitting here smoking menthols and drinking a ton of water. I hate this so much.

I went. Felt like I had an entire baby.

I’m so sad. I let my adult son use my Xbox for awhile and I ended up getting a switch so I let him keep him. (He lives with me he’s 19). Anyways, I went to play it and he was playing Skyrim. I said you didn’t delete my account right because he was under my profile (he didn’t know he could use it on his too). He said omg I’m so sorry I didn’t mean to! 8 years of progress gone :( oh well. Now I’m starting all over. What should I do first? Dragonborn? Vampire? Ware wolf? Mage?

Everyone ragging on my son- he’s not a gamer whatsoever. He uses the Xbox for shows. I’m not mad I’m just sad. I ended up being an orc and going to be a mage first!
