Reply #24: Been unemployed for two years now. I live with my twin sister. She has [View All]

to pay our rent, car payments, groceries and utilities. I was able to apply for food stamps, but only for three months. I have to wait another THREE years before I can apply again.

If it weren't for her taking me in, in all honesty, I don't know. I know a preacher who probably would've set me up somewhere to stay temporarily, don't really know.

We have to forfeit a lot of stuff, like movies! When I was working, we went to the movies a lot together. She and I are movie buffs. We don't ever get to go out to dinner, unless my brother takes us out with his family because he always pays. We have to buy real cheap. We never get to go shopping any more either. It is real depressing sometimes. Sometimes she comes in my room and finds me crying, contemplating suicide because I feel so terrible to put her through so much burden, but she tells me that she loves me and would be lost without me and that things will get better. I never tell her though, that I know deep down in my mind, things are only going to get worse with this madman still in the WH.

If you ever find yourself in this situation, it is truly frightening. I am trying to find anything. I have never had retail experience, so I am not even getting any calls back for places to work in retail either. (Sigh) For the first time, I have been looking to Canada for work and am trying to apply for a Skilled Worker Visa. I did pass the test.
