  • Thanks for the bump!

  • I feel you. I hate it when people make out it's so easy to live off the food bank. My local food bank packages consist mostly of drinks - a box of tea, a jar of coffee, a bottle of milk, with a bag of sugar and some cookies and doritos. That is seriously what's in the packages I've been given. Occasionally a small loaf of bread or a small bag of pasta. Who can live off that, especially long-term? That's how i found this site, someone directed me here because I was trying to sell my prescription meds online as I was absolutely starving and so desperate for food.

  • This is why I try and stick to just a few websites that aren't likely to have to much distressing stuff on them.

  • It's so evil how something going wrong in life puts you on a downward spiral where everything just gets worse and worse. Get an illness? That's not enough on its own, now you also have side effects from medications and poverty from being unable to work. And then being so poor leads to more bad outcomes, worse health, malnutrition, homelessness or insecure housing. Or, for instance, suffer a traumatic incident? That's not enough on its own, now you develop PTSD and struggle to function, your whole life goes down the pan. Have a poverty-stricken childhood? Now you're less likely to get a good education, less likely to earn enough money and even grow up with lower cognitive development, more mental health issues and more long-term health problems, all of which affect your life outcomes. And the lower you sink, the more society despises you and the less of a support network you have. Why is our society set up to make people's lives worse when they have problems already?

    Oh, and I seem to have developed incurable BO. For the past few days, my armpits stink no matter how much I wash them or how much deodorant I use. Is this an age thing? I was already an old hag, now it seems I'm becoming a smelly old hag.
