Hey y'all. I found an unbelievably sweet kitten in the hallway of my building today at the Village at San Jose in Lakewood on Auburn Rd. They were pressure washing the outside of the buildings, so I'm sure wherever she was she just got scared and ran into the only open door that was available.

I thought my across-the-hall neighbors with a couple of dogs had gotten a kitten that was having some separation anxiety issues and meowing loudly at their door, but when i started to go up the stairs to make sure it wasn't actually in the hallway, this little baby met me halfway. I knocked on my two neighbors' doors, but nobody answered so I'll try again tomorrow and leave notes if i don't get an answer, but i doubt she belongs to either of them.

I brought her to a vet and had them scan for a microchip and she doesn't seem to have one, but she's so friendly and comfortable with humans that it's crazy to imagine she isn't at least being fed and interacted with frequently by someone in the area.

I've notified the office in case someone reports a missing kitten, but I'm going to be posting here and a few other places, but if you're missing a kitten, let me know and give me at least a good description or a photo and I'll let you know if I've got your baby.

If I don't find an owner in a week or so, I'll post again on here to find her a home (I'd love to keep the sweet thing, but my resident kitty is not amused lol).

​

I had been on disability since 2009 for severe anxiety and multiple chronic pain conditions. My benefits were suddenly cut off in March (I'm appealing the decision, but currently fucked) and i have been without an income and my roommate moved at the beginning of this month, so now I'm also stuck with double my rent and my bank account is overdrafted by $200.

​

I am unable to stand or walk for more than a few minutes due to sciatica, have no range of motion in my neck (was supposed to have neck surgery in March, but lost insurance), arthritis in my hands, shoulders, hips, and spine, and i have absolutely no savings and no local support system because I've been so mobility limited for so many years that i rarely leave my apartment.

​

I'm about to be homeless, have several credit cards that will be going into collections due to the loss of income, and I haven't worked at all since 2018 when my mobility became so extremely limited. I genuinely don't understand how the government determined that I'm no longer disabled, but they did.

​

I would love to get a job doing cashiering or customer service in person again, but i cannot stand or move very much, especially now that i have been unmedicated for months. What the fuck do i do? Where can someone like me with no real experience and absolutely no recent experience find work that can be done from home? I've become paralyzed from the anxiety i have over possibly losing everything due to this and i just have no idea what i need to do.

​

I'm in Jacksonville, FL. Can anyone help me in any way?

Thanks to everyone for your help on my recent extremely panicked posts. For anyone wondering, I was able to borrow enough money to pay my balance before they filed for eviction (it seems they may have managed to forget about me, because it should have been filed this morning at 9am).

​

I'm still unsure about what's going to happen next month, but I'll be spending the next while applying for employment. I appreciate all the recommendations for possible WFH positions and those will be first.

​

I'm also looking for a roommate to cover half of rent plus utilities (currently about $800), so if anyone reading this is interested, let me know. Again, my situation is obviously unsure, but I definitely can't pay the entire amount myself.

​

I'm still going to be packing up my place in the meantime just so I have a head start in case things don't pan out next month. If anyone's got a spare room for a relatively tidy 41-year-old woman that potentially can wait on funds to come through from a job or getting my disability benefits back, please reach out. I do have a cat and I would really like to keep as I'm extremely attached and have had her for 11 years (since she was 3 weeks old), but I'll be keeping an eye out for someone who can at least foster her while I get my shit together in the meantime.

​

​

I'm likely going to be evicted soon. My story is in my post history, but I'm disabled and my benefits have stopped and I've been unable to pay rent this month plus my roommate suddenly moved out.

​

How long does eviction usually take here?

​

Does anyone have boxes i could use and somewhere i can store things?

​

I'll be looking to get rid of a bunch of stuff (like a couch, shelves, kitchen appliances, etc) but I've currently got no income and nowhere to go for me, my cat, or my things.

This is mostly a repost of my earlier post, but I've made a [GoFundMe ](https://www.gofundme.com/f/help-emily-with-urgent-medical-and-living-expenses/cl/o?utm\_campaign=man\_sharesheet\_dash&utm\_content=amp17\_ta-amp20\_t1&utm\_medium=customer&utm\_source=copy\_link&lang=en\_US&ts=1778614562) in an attempt to raise money, which got me through last month, but i owe another $900 this month for rent because my roommate took off plus i owe about $250 for electric. My family is no longer able to contribute and I'm still trying to find anywhere in town that can help with rent, but haven't had any luck so far.

​

I'm disabled by chronic pain and severe anxiety and have been on disability since 2009, but it was cut off in 2023 when they somehow came to the conclusion that I'm no longer disabled. It took six months to get my benefits started again during my appeal, but they were cut off again on March 1 this year without warning and i just got notice they found against me again and i have to restart my appeal.

​

I've tried United Way, St Vincent de Paul, Catholic charities, family, and a bunch of other places, but no help is available or referrals are gone by the time i finally get through.

​

I'm in desperate need of help at this point. I've got nowhere to go if i get evicted because all my family is in different states. My apartment management company will file for eviction Monday if I'm not paid up and i have nowhere for me or my cat to go. I don't even have a vehicle to live in.

​

If anyone can help at all, anything is appreciated.

I'm so completely boned. My roommate spent his money and left suddenly at the beginning of the month, my disability appeal was denied, my parents are no longer able to help. I haven't been able to get through to the city even though I've called every day this week, i couldn't get through to United Way on Tuesday, and i haven't been successful in finding any other help.

​

I'm physically disabled and have been without medical insurance for months, but just got Medicaid approved and am supposed to finally see a new primary care provider on Tuesday. I've got mobility issues, so i can't just get a regular job because I'm unable to stand for more than a couple of minutes and usually can't walk more than a half a block before my legs won't work anymore. I haven't worked since 2018 because of my back, but my disability was just recently cut off, despite being severely disabled.

I've made a GoFundMe in an attempt to raise money, but I'm so short there that it's not gone to cover much more than what 8 currently owe the electric company.

I'm disabled by chronic pain and severe depression and have been on disability since 2009, but it was cut off in 2023 when they somehow came to the conclusion that I'm no longer disabled. It took six months to get my benefits started again during my appeal, but they were cut off again on March 1 this year without warning until the next step in the appeal, and i have no idea when that will be.

I've tried United Way, St Vincent de Paul, Catholic charities, family, and a bunch of other places, but no help is available or referrals are gone by the time i finally get through.

I just turned 41 on the 4th, and it really sucks having to spend my birthday desperately trying to get help paying rent.

If anyone can help at all, anything is appreciated.

My roommate is pushing 70 and has been on 30mg oxycodone for about 20 years now (as long as he's been on social security disability) and is having a hell of a time finding anywhere that will fill his prescription. The Publix he's been filling at either doesn't have any or is unable to fill for some other reason and he's been calling around for the past couple of days with no luck. Everyone he's called seems to be out of stock right now.

I know this is an odd question to ask in here, but he's getting very close to out of meds and after being on them for so long, he's in for a rough time if he can't find somewhere to fill his script. Do any of y'all happen to have any recommendations?

TIA

Hey y'all. My disability benefits were suddenly stopped on March 1 (9 days prior to scheduled neck surgery that didn't end up happening) and, while I'm appealing the cessation, i have no idea when I'll be getting them back. I currently have no income to pay rent or any other bills with and can't work because of my physical and mental issues. COJ denied me in March, so i can't even get an appt again until next month.

Is there any assistance available? I'm in Lakewood (32207) if it matters.
