I don’t hate animals, but pets are expensive. Just spent $225 yesterday on an ear infection. My cat has an allergy we cant figure out. We can’t afford it. Recommending a pet to even a person who likes animals, but stuggles financially isn’t good advice.
This is my first pet, and I probably won’t get another just because cost is high for vet care and food/litter. We have two cats and we spend probably $200 a month or more just for necessities before vet visits. Flea/tick meds are monthly and $100 just for the two of em. So make that $300 a month on necessities, aye…
I’ve been out of work since April.
Trump stop funding the government department that employed me. Instead he sends troops to cities. As an American I can’t afford a therapist. Even if I had insurance I’ve had nothing but bad experience with therepy. I don’t have family that will help me. I’m going hungry most days to stretch my budget.
If you we’re in my neighborhood I would feed youm that goes for anyone.
There’s that ‘lasagna for love’ organization, I’ve never used it, but I’ve heard about it. Give it a go?
I hate using Amazon, and I am absolutely on snap, but maybe I could send you some noodles or something? You just set up a list and I can purchase it for you.
A number of years ago, reddit had that page, idk the name I forgot, but so many people sent us food when we were struggling. I absolutely can pay it forward today. Lmk
Any support circles in the community that can help government or otherwise? Some really nice people in those organizations that are ready to lend a hand
Nothing. I just kind of ride it out. Every day.
You alright?
Nope.
Judging by the other answers here you should get a pet. I hope you are seeking help.
Pets annoy the hell out me. I hate animals to a point where I became a vegetarian years ago. I’m not trolling, I’m 100% serious.

I can’t afford to love anything.
I’m glad you are open about it. That’s a good thing. Are you open about it to anyone close to you in your life? Or not close to you? A therapist even?

In a couple months I turn 40.
I’m sorry this is happening to you. Maybe you could live with someone as a room mate until things turn around.
How’s job hunting? Are you active in that?
I hope your birthday will be a good day, buddy. Cheers!
A little bit of exercise should help. Start with walks?
I’m going hungry most days. Walking doesn’t help.

I really do appreciate that from the bottom of my heart. That being said I’m trying to keep a level of animioty between myself and the internet.
I’m willing to give up that animioty for full time employment if you’re in a position to help with that.
I need a job over a hand out. Once again I very much appreciate the offer.
Yeah no worries, I wish I could help with employment truly. Best of luck to you
