Getting therapy twice a week for anxiety, depression, cptsd
Getting meds for my mental health issues
Treated like a person who's real and actually matters
Just got a job secured
Start that in a couple days
Weekend shifts but roughly 865$ a month
I can fix things slowly with that
Got health insurance coverage
All the things I needed to fix, are actually getting fixed here... And no one thinks I'm stupid, no one is screaming at me, no one is demanding I work from home, no one is demanding money that doesn't belong to them, no one is snooping my bank account, no one is saying give me money or out you go
People ask how I'm doing
People ask if I tried this job and that
People ask me what I wanna have a career in
People ask me what makes me happy
People ask me what motivates me
People ask me if we can color stuff together or hang out and walk to the dollar store up the road
People treat me like a person
Something my family and ex boyfriend never did or completely failed to continue to do
It's sad but running to a shelter was the best decision I've ever made..
It's helping put my life back together..
In real lasting ways.
